Why it matters

Drawing blocks one by one slows every project

Furniture, people, trees and fixtures turn up in almost every drawing set. Redrawing them for each project costs hours and leaves plans looking empty or patched together.

  • Repetitive drafting

    The same sofa, door and tree get drawn again for every project.

  • Empty plans

    Drawings without furniture or people are hard to read for clients and juries.

  • Random downloads

    Blocks collected from all over the web come in mixed styles and odd layers.

  • Patchy drawing sets

    Symbols from different sources make a set look inconsistent.

With this CAD pack

  • Insert ready-made blocks instead of drawing them
  • One consistent drawing style
  • Opens in any PDF reader
  • Readable, furnished plans in less time
