Four-seat sofa with scalloped back and scroll carvings
Free CAD block from the Sofas library (193 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
Four-seat sofa with scalloped back and scroll carvings, drawn in plan, front and side elevation, the elevations drawn to match the plan. It measures 10' 0" wide, 2' 11" deep and 2' 8" high (3.05 m × 89 cm × 81 cm), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
It also comes as a 3D model built from these drawings.
From the Sofas library: 193 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
A palace reception room, an embassy salon, a grand hotel's parlor and the record drawing of a historic interior are where a four-seat scalloped sofa with scroll carvings is still drawn. Place it on the plan along the principal wall on the room's axis; at 10 ft (305 cm) it sets the symmetry of the room and everything else is mirrored about it.
Clearances to leave
Over 10 ft (3 m) long, so allow a 11 ft 2 in (340 cm) wall and 24 in (60 cm) at each carved end to reach a lamp table. Four seats at 30 in (76 cm) each; keep the center table 18 in (45 cm) off the seat and the facing armchairs within 10 ft (3 m) so a conversation still carries across the room.
Pairs with
The Boat-shaped dining table for twelve with armchairs suits the dining room next door. In the salon itself, the Three-seat sofa with scalloped back and scroll carvings sits on a side wall, the Wide armchair with scalloped back and scroll carvings opposite. Gilt throughout.
