Converting m² to square feet is essential in international real estate, architecture and interior design. The United States, Canada (in part) and the United Kingdom use the square foot (sq ft) as the standard surface unit.
1 square meter equals exactly 10.7639 square feet. This value comes from the fact that 1 m = 3.28084 ft, so 1 m² = 3.28084² ≈ 10.7639 ft².
📐 Formula
Square feet (ft²) = Square meters × 10.7639

💡 Practical examples
Example 1: 75 m² (Parisian apartment)
75 × 10.7639 ≈ 807.3 ft². An apartment of 75 m² corresponds to about 807 square feet.
Example 2: 120 m² (single-family house)
120 × 10.7639 ≈ 1,291.7 ft². A 120 m² house represents about 1,292 sq ft on an American real estate listing.
Example 3: 1 m² (reference)
1 × 10.7639 ≈ 10.76 ft². Knowing that 1 m² ≈ 10.76 sq ft allows quick mental conversions.
