Assignment 01.04 SurfaceLine


We start a process of surface mapping.

Measure your item. For example, if it is a dress or a shirt, measure the entire length, partial lengths, measure chest, waist, hip, shoulder, sleeve, neck, and more.

Draw a grid of 1”x1” modules in Autocad, scale 1:1, and print the grid on white paper, accordingly to the size of your item.

Place physically the item in reference with the grid. Focus on the front view.

In Autocad, draw the front view of your item, keeping the grid as reference in light grey color as background.


Draw the following and create layers with the same names:

Profile lines (continuous line, red);

Axis (continuous line, black);

Angles (dashed line, black);

Pattern profile (grey hatch);

Point mark (red dots).


Print from Autocad a 11x17” paper sheet with colors, scale to fit page.

At the bottom of your page, insert a Legenda with layers and lines.
