What is an lsometric drawing?

Answer 1

An isometric drawing is a schematic detailing a three-dimensional object in an abstract space that has no vanishing point. So, you can see the thickness of the object, but all sides remain parallel, unlike how objects appear in real life. In real life, the sides of an object converge as they get farther and farther from the eye. Think of a building whose sides slope into a point off in the distant horizon. These drawings are helpful in giving precise measurements, scale, placement and proportions. A good example of an isometric drawing would be the assembly instructions that come with a piece of household furniture.
