Eric Reinhold – AutoCAD template

Save when buying our AutoCAD bundle: templates, title blocks, cover sheets, general notes, symbols, legends, lighting and power packages together.

Having difficulty creating presentation quality drawings in AutoCAD? This template is your solution.

You’ll get:

• Graphically compelling visuals right out of the box without fussing or experimenting
• An example of line types and styles that effectively communicate with both clients and contractors
• A small sample floor plan + elevation for reference
• A minimalist, well-designed title block
• Artistic pen settings for your plotter

Imagine starting a new drawing without having to track down all your favorite dimension and text styles, your title sheet, all your favorite blocks, notations and settings you used on the last project. It’s all in one place and it includes instructions on how you can fine tweak it to create your own styles.

Using a template file ensures every drawing begins with the correct settings and standard blocks each time, all with just one click. The included files will help you to replicate the simple, graphic style Eric Reinholdt uses for all his residential architecture CAD work in his studio, 30X40 Design Workshop.
