This Simple Trick Can Solve All Your 2 Point Perspective Problems

This Simple Trick Can Solve All Your 2 Point Perspective Problems:
Perspective drawings are an effective way for architects to present their ideas to clients and fellow architects. The most commonly used type of perspective drawing, by architects, is the two-point perspective, in which all horizontal lines are directed towards two vanishing points, but you might catch yourself wondering, “Which point do I use for this line?” Drawing a perspective can be really tricky, especially for architecture students who are taking their very first steps. Many lines and details may cause a mix-up, and one wrong line in a perspective drawing can turn it into a sort of incomprehensible optical illusion. To avoid this mess, you can go for this simple 2 point perspective trick, which is good for speedy hand sketching. It only requires an elastic string and a paper clip.
