Mannequin figure with elbows out, hands at hips
Free CAD block from the People seated and standing library (54 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
Mannequin figure with elbows out, hands at hips, drawn in plan view. It measures 22½" wide and 16" deep (57 cm × 41 cm), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
From the People seated and standing library: 54 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
Elbows out in plan widens the figure, which makes it the one for people standing at a bar, waiting on a platform or chatting in a foyer where personal space is wider. Place it along a bar counter plan, around a high table in a café layout or by a copier in an office plan.
Clearances to leave
With elbows out the figure measures 22 by 16 in (57 by 41 cm), so bar stools or standing positions at a counter should be spaced 24–28 in (60–70 cm) apart to keep elbows from clashing. Behind it, a 36 in (90 cm) passage lets a server pass, and 48 in (120 cm) lets two people pass together.
Pairs with
Mix it with the Broad-shouldered mannequin figure standing, arms at sides in a foyer plan, and draw the Mannequin figure with hands on hip and thigh in the matching elevation. Four of these around the Small square side table with inset top make a standing cocktail cluster.
