Drapes are a type of furniture that provide a small amount of beauty and appease nobles.

Acquisition

Constructing a drape requires Complex Furniture to be researched as well as  150 Stuff (Fabric/Leathery),  50 Wood and 2,000 ticks (33.33 secs) of work.

Summary

Drapes provide beauty, which is impacted by the beauty factor of the textile used. For example, thrumbofur gives +60 beauty, while a cloth drape gives +7. Like with all multi-tile buildings, the beauty is applied to bottom-left most tile.

Drapes will also satisfy certain noble bedroom and throne room requirements. Unless they are Ascetic, royal barons or higher will demand 2 drapes in their throne room, and 1 drape in their bedroom.

Analysis

Used to please nobles. Outside of noble requirements, they are almost always inferior to sculptures.

A wooden small sculpture costs just 50 wood and takes up only a single tile. A poor quality wood sculpture gives +25 beauty, already better than a devilstrand drape or 3 cloth drapes. A normal quality sculpture, with +50 beauty, beats all textiles except for thrumbofur. Note that wood sculptures take a base of 12,600 ticks (3.5 mins) to make, but this is worth the saved space and resources. Therefore, if you have any remotely competent artist (around 3 Art skill), then sculptures are more cost efficient.

Armchairs tend to be a better use of textile. Armchairs give roughly 117.3% the beauty per textile used. They only take up 1 grid tile, meaning they have more beauty / tile, too. Armchairs can also be sat on to increase comfort.
