Projections
Orthographic Projection
What It Looks Like:
The object is broken into different flat views. These views are often stacked or aligned with each other.
Example Uses:
Engineering blueprints, Manufacturing plans, Technical documentation
-
what is it?
Orthographic projection is a method of drawing an object by showing separate 2D views from different angles—front, top, side, etc. Each view shows only one face of the object at a time.
Why it’s useful:
Gives exact dimensions for making or building something. Helps with precise measurements and tolerances. Often required for fabrication or construction
isometric projections
Key Features:
All axes (height, width, depth) are drawn at 120° angles to each other.

What It Looks Like:
The object looks 3D. You can see three sides at once (usually front, top, and side). Common in manuals, 3D models, video game art
What is it?
Isometric projection is a method for drawing a 3D object on a 2D surface, where all three dimensions are shown equally. It gives a realistic 3D-like view of the object.
-
In technical drawing or engineering, a projection is a way to represent a 3D object on a 2D surface (like paper or a screen) so others can understand its shape, size, and design.
