The present invention is directed towards designing integrated circuit and provides systems and methods for lithography-aware floorplanning. According to one embodiment of the invention, a method for circuit floorplanning is provided. The method comprises generating a floorplan through a floorplanner, performing a lithography-analysis within the floorplanner on at least a portion of the floorplan, and generating one or more violations that result from the lithography-analysis. Some embodiment, in addition to viewing a floorplan, further comprise of modifying the floorplan. Furthermore, some embodiments provide a method that further comprises fixing the violations that result from the lithography analysis.
