One Point Perspective Drawing Part 2 Exterior and Interior Spaces
Assignment: Create 1 one-point perspective drawing. Can be either an interior space or an exterior space.
Create a one-point perspective interior space drawing.
​
-
You must use a ruler.
-
Use the corners of your paper as the corners of the room.
-
The vanishing point does not need to go in the center of the page. It may look better if it's offset.
-
Start with a shape (ex: rectangle for the edge of a sofa). All lines should be parallel to the sides of the paper.
-
After you have drawn your shape all of the corners will angle towards the vanishing point.
​
Remember:
-
Objects should look like they are on the same scale. Imagine that this is your room. Your furniture should look like it all belongs in the same room.
-
Objects that are directly attached to the wall like a frame don't have to angle to the vanishing point.
-
Hide the vanishing point by incorporating it into a shape.
-
Erase all of the extra lines when you're done.
Create a one-point perspective exterior space drawing.
-
You must use a ruler.
-
Use the corners of your paper as the corners of the building.
-
The vanishing point does not need to go in the center of the page. It may look better if it's offset.
-
Start with a shape (ex: use a rectangle for a window or the front of the building). All lines should be parallel to the sides of the paper.
-
After you have drawn your shape all of the corners will angle towards the vanishing point.
​
Remember:
-
Objects should look like they are on the same scale. Imagine that this is your house, most of the doors are the same size and height and the windows are level when you look at them from outside.
-
Objects that are directly attached to the house will go towards the vanishing point.
-
Plants in nature don't go towards the vanishing point. They are independent objects.
-
Hide the vanishing point by incorporating it into a shape.
-
Erase all of the extra lines when you're done.
