What is two-point perspectivedrawing?

A two-point perspective rendering defines all objects within thedrawing to one of two vanishing points.


3/19

Two-point perspective drawingTo start the rendering, begin by orienting your floor plan to a

30-60 degree angle

From a corner of the building in plan draw a horizontal lineindicating your perspective plane.

Two-point perspective drawingLocate your vanishing points by projecting lines parallel to the plan

from the stationary point to the perspective plane. Draw vertical linesfrom the point where the lines intersect to the horizon plane indicatingthe location of your vanishing points.

Two-point perspective drawingDefine the volume by removing any unnecessary lines and darkening the

rest. For the sides of the volume that are not visible to the foreground usehidden (dashed) lines to indicate the 3-dimesional volume of the spaceinside.

Two-point perspective drawingShade and Shadow

Assumption: Sun is at a 45-degree angle to the profile of the volume


16/19

Two-point perspective drawingDraw horizontal lines at the corners of the ground plan of the volume


17/19

Two-point perspective drawingDraw lines from the intersect point of the projected lines to define the

profile of the volume.


18/19

Two-point perspective drawingRemove unnecessary lines and define the profile of the volume.
