SH3D is the main file format of Sweet Home 3D, which stores a home designed with this software. It is a ZIP archive which may contain the following files:

Home

The home, stored using Java Object Serialization.

Home.xml

An XML representation of the same home, introduced in version 5.3. It is prioritized over Home, but Home is still saved for backwards compatibility.

ContentDigests

A text file whose contents resemble MIME headers, introduced in version 4.4. It contains SHA-1 hashes for the images and 3D models used by the home.

1-indexed numbered directories and files may also exist in the archive, holding textures and 3D models used by the home when they are not built-in. These are in JPEG, MTL and OBJ format.
