How To Draw A Room Using One Point Perspective

The document provides instructions for drawing a room using one point perspective. It explains that one point perspective, also called parallel perspective, involves having a single vanishing point where parallel lines converge to give the illusion of depth. The 10 step instructions then guide the reader through drawing a rectangle room shape, adding a tiled floor with lines converging on the vanishing point, and including a door and window with frames that also point to the vanishing point. Completing the drawing involves adding furnishings and shading details.

By making a drawing using one point perspective, students will learn to make a two-
dimensional space appear three-dimensional. Students will learn how to use a
vanishing point to create a room interior.

To create a room using One Point Perspective you need to know a few basic things.
One Point Perspective is also called Parallel Perspective because YOU the viewer
(and artist) are parallel to the objects that you will be drawing. Also, vertical lines are
parallel and horizontal lines are parallel and the back edges of objects that recede in
the distance are parallel to the front edges of those objects.
Step 1: Step 1

Step 1: To begin your room in one point


perspective...using a pencil and a ruler, lightly
make an X by connecting the right top corner to
the left bottom corner of your paper and by
connecting the top left corner to the bottom right.
Step 2: Step 2

Step 2: Using pencil and ruler, lightly make a


rectangle on the X...be sure to make the vertical
lines and horizontal lines of the rectangle parallel
to the sides of the paprer.
Step 3: Step 3

Step 3: Now we will make a light oblique line from


the left back corner of the room to the front right
corner. Draw this lightly with pencil and use the
ruler. This will be a "guideline" on adding tiles or
boards for your floor.

Step 4: Step 4
Step 4: Next, using the pencil and ruler, lightly
draw oblique lines from the center of the X (called
the vanishing point) to the front of the floor which
is at the bottom of the paper. These lines will be
floor tiles, so you can space them like you want
them...they could also be boards for a wooden
floor.

Step 5: Step 5
Step 5: Now you can make tiles using the last
lines you added in Step 3 and 4. Lay the ruler
parallel to the bottom of the paper and make a
horizontal line across on the floor of the room
where the guideline meets the first oblique line.
Step 6: Step 6

Step 6: Continue adding the horizontal lines until


the tile floor is created.
Step 7: Step 7

Step 7: Now we'll add a window and a door. Start


by deciding how tall the window and the door
should be. Start these by making a vertical line on
the two receding walls.
Step 8: Step 8

Step 8: Continue the door by connecting the top of


doorway to the vanishing point. Continue the
window by connecting the window to the
vanishing point.

Step 9: Step 9
Step 9: Complete the window and door by adding
a vertical line for the back edges. These vertical
lines will be parallel with the front edges.

Step 10: Step 10


Step 10: Complete the room by adding a rectangle
window in the back of the room and erase all
connecting (converging) lines that are no longer
necessary. Finish by adding furniture and shading
and your own creative touches!
