Basic Isometric Sketching and Coded Plans Chapter 2 of Text
Objectives • Understand the basics of the isometric sketching • Create basic isometric sketches using snap cubes and coded plans
Isometric Sketches • Isometric sketches represent 3 dimensional objects in 2D space. Isometric grid and dot paper Isometric coordinate system
Isometric Sketches • Isometric sketches are made as if you’re looking down the diagonal of a cube. Diagonal of the cube End view of the diagonal • Note that when we look down on the cube like this, the right angles appear distorted. • The square sides of the cube now look like parallelograms.
Coded plans • Coded plans define simple objects which can be made from blocks. • Each number represents how tall the stack of blocks is at that location.
Isometric Sketches from Coded Plans • Lines are shown only where surfaces intersect. • Hidden edges are not shown.
Isometric Sketches and Coded Plans • Use this time and your snap cubes to practice building objects and sketching in isometric perspective using coded plans. • In class assignment
