    I have decided to design my home in AutoCAD.

    Where do I get Blocks i.e. doors, windows, bath and kitchen furniture in
    plan view.

    What happen to the old days of DCA or Softdesk where they had 1000's of
    house blocks in the Architectural Add-on? Are blocks available free on the
    WEB? I can't seem to find what I need. Can one purchase them cheaply?

    Thanks

  2. There are a bunch of imperial blocks on my site that you can use.

    BTW, when it comes to buildings, CAD has very little to do with "design". It
    doesn't generate ideas,
    prioritize a program, resolve conflicts, coordinate services and structure,
    recognize bad proportions,
    refer to cultural symbols, articulate tectonics, prevent condensation,
    comply with building codes or
    zoning regulations, plan around furniture arrangements, rationalize
    spending, optimize orientations, etc.

    Then again, neither do many famous architects. ; D

    www.cadregister.com has all those same files online. It's a good source for
    lots of stuff.
