Free CAD block from the Sofas library (193 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
Two-seat sofa with scalloped back and scroll carvings, drawn in plan, front and side elevation, the elevations drawn to match the plan. It measures 5' 7" wide, 2' 11" deep and 2' 8" high (1.70 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
Period interiors, heritage hotels, palace restorations and theater sets are where a scalloped back with scroll carvings is still drawn. On the plan it sits in a formal parlor, centered on a wall or paired across a fireplace; the scrolls draw as curled ends at each arm, so set the block out from its carved extremities, not its seat.
Clearances to leave
Its 67 in (170 cm) width and 35 in (89 cm) depth make it the bulkiest two-seater in the library, as deep as any three-seater here. Keep 18 in (45 cm) to a low table, 24 in (60 cm) between the carved ends and a wall so they are not bumped, and 36 in (90 cm) in front of any sideboard it faces.
Pairs with
The Wide armchair with scalloped back and scroll carvings pairs with it either side of a hearth, and the Three-seat sofa with scalloped back and scroll carvings takes the long wall. Gilded frames, silk damask, symmetric layout.
