Box sofa (square arms) CAD block
An American sofa from about 1820, attributed to Duncan Phyfe: square arms level with the back, like a tuxedo sofa today, on short turned legs. 2083 mm wide and only 692 mm deep, a slim three-seater for a narrow room.

What's in the file
- Three blocks
- SOFA_BOX_EMPIRE_PLAN, SOFA_BOX_EMPIRE_FRONT and SOFA_BOX_EMPIRE_SIDE. The plan's insertion point is the back-left corner; the elevations sit at floor level.
- Layers
- The outline is on layer 0 with ByBlock colour, so each block takes the layer you insert it on. Detail lines are on I-FURN-DETL and dashed hidden edges on I-FURN-HIDN, so you can switch either off.
- Size
- W 2083 × D 692 × H 857 mm. Measured by the museum, so check it against the piece you're specifying, and scale it if yours differs.
- SketchUp
- The DXF for SketchUp is the same block with a surface in every closed area, so the Paint Bucket fills each one in one click. Import it with Merge coplanar faces ticked: how to import it.
- Use
- Free for your own projects, including drawings for clients. Please don't share it as part of a block library.
