Difference between Isometric, Oblique and Orthographic Drawing.

Isometric drawing

Orthographic drawing

Oblique Drawing

Difference between Isometric, Oblique and Orthographic Drawing.

Isometric drawings- A pictorial representation of an object in which all three dimensions are drawn at full scale rather than foreshortening them to the true projection. An isometric drawing looks like an isometric projection but its all lines parallel to the three major axes are measurable. (http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/isometric-drawing.html)

Oblique drawings- They are designed to show a three dimensional view of an object. It is a kind of a drawing that shows one face of the object in true shape, but the other faces on a distorted angle. Oblique is not really a '3D' system but a 2 dimensional view of an object with 'forced depth'. (http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_an_oblique_drawing)

Orthographic drawings is a means of representing a three-dimensional object in two dimensions. It is a form of parallel projection, where the view direction is orthogonal to the projection plane, resulting in every plane of the scene appearing in affine transformation on the viewing surface. It is further divided into multi-view orthographic projections and axonometric pictorials. (http://www.answers.com/topic/orthographic-projection-1)


So basically, Isometric drawings is different from Oblique and Orthographic drawings. Oblique and Orthographic drawings are somehow similar to each other except that Oblique drawings shows only one face of the object in true shape whereas Orthographic drawings shows all the faces.

Define the theme-Environment


The surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or operates.

It is the circumstances, objects, or conditions by which one is surrounded.
The complex of physical, chemical, and biotic factors (as climate, soil, and living things) that act upon an organism or an ecological community and ultimately determine its form and survival: the aggregate of social and cultural conditions that influence the life of an individual or community.
Taken from: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/environment

The sum of the total of the elements, factors and conditions in the surroundings which may have an impact on the development, action or survival of an organism or group of organisms.

The external conditions, resources, stimuli etc. with which an organism interacts. The totality of the surrounding conditions and elements in an individual.
Taken from: http://www.biology-online.org/dictionary/Environment

Summary: The Environment is a setting. It will always be changing. It involves the nature, the surroundings, the conditions or influence that affects everyone/everything around. It is also about the factors(development & survival) which might impact on the organisms. The impact may be positive or negative. Besides that, the Environment is also about the social and culture nature in the surroundings.
