Calculate square meters from length and width, or convert a known square footage straight to square meters.
1 sq m = 10.764 sq ft.
From dimensions, we multiply length × width in meters to get square meters directly. On the conversion tab, we multiply a square meter figure by 10.764 to get square feet, or divide a square footage figure by that same 10.764 to get square meters — the constant works in both directions.
10.764 comes from squaring the exact 3.28084 feet in one meter (1 m² = 3.28084 ft × 3.28084 ft), so it isn't a rounded shortcut — it's the precise conversion factor between the metric and imperial area units. Offering both a dimensions mode and a direct conversion mode covers the two situations people actually have: raw length and width measurements, versus a square footage figure already in hand.
About 10.764 square feet make one square meter — so a 1,000 sq ft apartment is roughly 93 sq m.
For dimensions already in feet, the square footage calculator handles rectangles, circles, and triangles directly — use the "Convert" tab here once you have a total square footage to translate to square meters.
