Integrating Drafting Furniture with CAD

When you're in your CAD studio, having everything you need to be creative and produce great work is important. You may have your computer and printing needs met in your CAD studio, but now it's time to complete the layout of your work space by incorporating the right drafting furniture. Not sure what you need? When you're ready to take your CAD studio to a professional level by incorporating drafting furniture, we can help get you started.

Drafting Tables and Drawing Tables
When it's time to sketch your initial ideas, having a drafting table or drawing table is a must. Drafting tables and drawing tables offer an oversized tabletop to give you plenty of room to work when you're using extra-large drafting paper. When ordinary tables won't do for your project, a drafting table or drawing table offers:

A large work space with either a built-in ruler and/or edges to keep your materials in place
A solid tabletop that can tilt up to 45 degrees so you don't have to slouch or strain to work on your project
Trays for your important drafting supplies
Sturdy design with tabletops made from either glass, wood, or laminate

Light Tables
If you're working with frame-by-frame animation or any project that requires transparencies, you'll be glad you chose a light table, which is simply a light box with a translucent top through which light gently shines. Light tables can help you:

With initial sketch drawings
Make any paper translucent, even layered pieces
Save time with frame-by-frame animation
Work faster when you need to trace
View multiple layers of floor plans to note how they inter-relate

Drafting Chairs and Stools
Having the right seat to work on is an important step in creating your CAD studio. Drafting chairs and drafting stools are a cut above ordinary work chairs, and you can't compromise comfort when it comes to your important project. Drafting chairs offer:

Maximum comfort with adjustable heights
An essential companion to your drafting table or light box
Drafting stools offer 360-degree swivel for important mobility
Avoid stressed muscles in your back or neck with a drafting chair that can help increase your posture for those long work hours
Made with durable steel, drafting chairs and stools are sure to withstand rugged use and will last
Give yourself a healthy environment in your CAD studio with the drafting chair or drafting stool to meet your needs

Organize Your Projects
A clean, organized CAD studio can make your work more efficient. Make sure to have proper flat file storage for all your projects. Flat files are an excellent choice to store blueprints, canvases, paper projects and more.

Your CAD studio needs a layout that works best for you. Natural light is always a plus for artists, but most importantly, consider the environment in which you work best. If you don not have the light you need consider a magnifying lamp or regular swing arm lamp. Study the layout of your work space and how much walking room and wall area are available. Will it be easy to move through your CAD studio? Do you have the proper drafting furniture? Is the layout of your room and its functionality working best for you? With careful planning, your CAD studio can fit all your creative work needs.
