HOW DO YOU DO IT ?Planometric views are mainly used to show building interiors (rooms) to give a pictorial impression of how the room looks. However, Planometric views can be drawn for any object.For rooms drawn in Planometric, always start with the floor area, this can be shown rotated to an angle of 30o/60o or 45o/45o as shown.

30o 60o 45o 45o

DRAW IN THE FLOOR AREAVery faintly, draw in the footprint of the furniture on the floor plan.

30o 60o

CREATE THE BASE UNITSProject vertical lines upwards from each corner of the units. Then draw in the tops of the units.

30o 60o

NOW DRAW THE WALLSProject vertical heights from the corners of the room.

30o 60o

NOW ‘LINE IN’ THE ROOMFinally ‘line in’ the correct lines taking care to only draw over the edges that can be seen.

30o 60o

SUMMARY

Start with initial angles of 30o\60o or 45o\45o for the floor area

Draw in lightly the footprint of the furniture or units

Project vertical lines upward from the corners to the height of the units

Project vertical height of the walls from the corners of the room
