Each wall has its own length, height, and wall area.
Total wall area is the sum of all wall areas; net wall area subtracts door and window openings.
Door openings ≈ 20 sq ft each; a painted door (both sides + trim) ≈ 50 sq ft.
Average window size is used only for wall opening subtraction; window trim is estimated at 15 sq ft per window for paint.
Ceilings use ceiling length × ceiling width and can have primer plus Matte, Velour, or Satin finishes.
Doors & trim can have their own primer and finish coats.
