Graphic Layout Guidelines
  Use an invisible Grid to align and
  organize information
    Minimize/control “white
    space” (negative space)
    Leave a bit of white space border
    around the edge of paper
Create a Visual Hierarchy:
    Main Focal Point – Large image, bold,
    intense color or high contrast
    Secondary Foci – Medium, clear/crisp
    lines, good contrast
    Tertiary Information – Smaller, finer
    drawings and text with more
    information, but less graphic impact
Organize information logically
    Align related drawings
    Orient Floor and Roof Plans to Site
    Plan (north in same direction)
    Include North Arrows with horizontal
    Plans only
    Include Graphic Scale Bars with All
    Orthographic Drawings
Provide a horizontal base
to “sit drawings on”
   Titles are always below drawings (w/
   few exceptions)
   Place north arrows and scale bars
   below drawings
   Heavy Ground Line/Ground Cut/
   Poche on all Elevations & Sections
Text Hierarchy:
   Project Title – Largest (36 – 108 pts)
   OK to use fancy font
   Drawing Titles – Medium size (12-36
   pts) simple, legible font
   Verbal Text & Notes – Small size
   (1/8” typical, 8-14 pts); use simple
   font , italic or neat hand lettering is
   OK
