About this size
Arch E is the architectural equivalent of a blueprint at building-scale. Full project plans for medium and large commercial work, complete site plans, major presentation sheets for competition entries and design reviews all live at this size.
The practical requirements scale with the format. Plotter output, mounted display for presentations, sturdy framing for portfolio pieces, and rolled transport for shipping all become workflow considerations rather than afterthoughts.
- Large architecture plans
- Blueprints
- Presentation sheets
Pro tips
- 1 Reserved for large project plans and presentation boards. The size commands wall space and signals scale on its own.
- 2 Requires a large-format plotter and sturdy mounting for display. Both production and presentation pipelines assume professional equipment.
- 3 Transport rolled or in a portfolio sleeve. The size cannot fold without damaging the drawing surface.
