A preliminary visual of an idea for a design. Most of these sketches are not full size and have little detail. Their purpose is to help quickly explore possible alternative designs.

• Thumbnail Sketch

• Isometric Sketch

• Multiview Sketch

This type of paper uses perpendicular lines to create a grid.

• Cartesian

• Isometric

A sketch in which an object’s parallel edges are drawn with parallel lines, typically at 30-degree angles to the horizontal baseline. There are no vanishing points, and three sides of the object can be seen simultaneously.

• Thumbnail Sketch

• Isometric Sketch

• Multiview Sketch

This graph paper uses lines at a 30-degree angle to create a grid.

• Cartesian

• Isometric

A sketch, typically including the top, front, and right primary views of an object that are drawn using orthographic projections. An isometric sketch of the object is often included.

• Thumbnail Sketch

• Isometric Sketch

• Multiview Sketch

Graph paper separated into four equal areas. The top left area shows the orthographic sketch from the top view, the bottom left area shows the orthographic sketch from the front view, the bottom right area shows the orthographic sketch from the right view, and the top right area shows the isometric sketch.

• Cartesian Graph Paper

• Isometric Graph Paper

• Multiview Graph Paper

• Construction Lines

• Object Lines

• Hidden Lines

• Center Lines

Thick solid lines used to show visible edges of an object. Sometimes construction lines are converted to these lines.
