ARCHITECTURAL PERSPECTIVE GRIDS A revolutionary new tool for creating perspective drawings quickly and precisely Can we draw a perspective with floor plans, elevations, and sections? Can we design a building in three dimensions before it is drawn in two dimentions? Can we integrate all views of a building into one coherent design entity? The answer is Yes and the solution is three-dimensional design. The advantage of three-dimensional over two-dimensional design is that it come so much closer to reality. Architectural perspective grids are an excellent tool for this purpose. In addition, these grids can be used to construct perspective from floor plans, elevations, and sections in an easy and time-saving process. More than 120 ready-made perspective grids with various angles, station points, and eye levels are included. This versatile book/disk package provides step-by-step examples for site, exterior, interior, as well as grids for bird'seye views and three-point perspectives. An accompanying DOS disk in AutoCAD and DXF file format facilitates the ust of custom-made perspective grids to any size.
