Current 3D layout estimation models are predominantly trained on synthetic datasets biased toward simplistic, single-floor scenes. This prevents them from generalizing to complex, multi-floor buildings, often forcing a per-floor processing approach that sacrifices global context. Few works have attempted to holistically address multi-floor layouts. In this work, we introduce HouseLayout3D, a real-world benchmark dataset, which highlights the limitations of existing research when handling expansive, architecturally complex spaces. Additionally, we propose MultiFloor3D, a baseline method leveraging recent advances in 3D reconstruction and 2D segmentation. Our approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods on both our new and existing datasets. Remarkably, it does not require any layout-specific training.
