december - 6th - 2010 / architectural building

An architectural drawing or architect's drawing is a technical drawing of a building (or building project) that falls within the definition of architecture. architectural drawings are used by architects to build a house, store, or skyscraper/tall buildings. also to create a design IDEA not an actual design.
The development of the computer had a major impact on the methods used to design and create technical drawings. which include particular views (floor plan, section etc.), sheet sizes, units of measurement and scales, annotation and cross referencing. 

One-point perspective


One-Point
 Perspective.
One vanishing point is typically used for roads, railway tracks, hallways, or buildings viewed so that the front is directly facing the viewer. Any objects that are made up of lines either directly parallel with the viewer's line of sight or directly perpendicular (the railroad slats) can be represented with one-point perspective.
Two-point perspective - has one set of lines parallel to the picture plane and two sets oblique to it.Parallel lines oblique to the picture plane converge to a vanishing point,which means that this set-up will require two vanishing points.
Three-point perspective is usually used for buildings seen from above (or below).
