Free AutoCAD Mediterranean and Spanish colonial furniture blocks (DWG): sofas, tables, beds, courtyard and room sets

About the style

There is no standard for furniture plan symbols. The style is drawn after its common traits: heavy carved wood on turned legs, wrought-iron scrolls, rush and leather seats, nailhead trim, trunks with iron straps, built-in plastered benches, tiled courtyard tables and terracotta pots.

These symbols are our own drawings after the common design conventions of the style, and the library is not certified against any standard. Check them against your project and change the blocks if yours differ.

Frequently asked questions

What does Mediterranean and Spanish colonial mean here?

It is the look of Spanish houses and of the colonial houses built after them in Mexico and the American Southwest, and of rustic houses around the Mediterranean: dark wood, iron, tile, plaster and terracotta. The blocks follow its common traits; they are not copies of any historic piece.

What are the room sets?

Ready-made groups of pieces as one block each, for example a living room with sofa, armchairs, table and rug, a refectory table with eight chairs and sideboard, a bedroom with an iron bed and trunk, or a patio with a tiled table. Explode a set to work on single pieces.

Can I use the symbols in commercial projects?

Yes. They are free to use and modify in your own projects, including commercial ones. They are provided as is, without warranty.

Can I use these together with the architectural furniture library?

Yes. They use the same units, the same attributes and the same insertion rule, so both libraries can be used in one plan. This one adds the Mediterranean and Spanish colonial look; the architectural library has the plain everyday pieces and the commercial and school furniture.

Can I change a symbol or add attributes?

Yes. Open the DWG, edit a block with BEDIT to change it or add attributes, and save. To update drawings that already contain the block, run ATTSYNC or replace the block. Make a backup first: attribute values can be lost if ATTSYNC is used carelessly.

Where do I find a ready-made set of these symbols for AutoCAD?

AutoCAD itself ships only a small set of sample blocks, so a full symbol set has to come from a library. Download the ZIP on this page and open the DWG: every symbol is a block. Insert one with INSERT (Blocks palette, Libraries tab, then pick the DWG) or drag it from DesignCenter (ADCENTER). You can also download a single symbol on its own.
