3.2.1 Glass Box Approach
The idea of orthographic or multi view drawing comes from the glass box
approach. Imagine that is an object suspended by transparent threads inside a
glass box, then draw the object on each three faces as seen from the direction as

Figure 3.2 : Object in the glass box
Unfold the box and we will get the three views from the different directions
which is called orthographic or multi view drawing.
