Project Description

Your class project is to create an interesting, realistic room interior that grabs your attention. We’ll focus on perspective, foreshortening and believable proportions to sell your ideas!

Getting Started:

Review ‘lesson 6; 3D Grid’, ‘lesson 7: Simple Figures’ and ‘lesson 8:The Room’
choose a theme that you want to create. For example: coffee shop, garden shop, sports shop, bakery, spa, etc…
Remember to keep things simple.
