Perspective

Eye level, vanishing points, ellipses, and the person who tells you how big the room is.

Eight lessons, from eye level to a street.

Keep your eye on the edge long enough for the line to tell the truth.

Boxes, cylinders, cones, and one light that explains the shadow.

Count in widths, find eye height on a door, and wrap a complex thing in a simple box.

Plan, elevation, section — and the line weights architects actually use to separate them.

Concrete, timber, and glass each have a line. None of them is a scribble.
