In the world of artistic design, projections are a fundamental tool used to translate three-dimensional forms into two-dimensional representations shown on paper or screens. This method is a precise visual technique for understanding and clarifying the structural composition of objects—whether architectural, industrial, artistic, or even imaginary.<br />1. Definition of Projections<br />Projections are technical drawings that show an object from different views (front, side, top, etc.) and are used to determine dimensions, structure, and proportions with high accuracy. They rely on scientific and engineering principles to illustrate objects correctly from various angles.<br />2. The Importance of Projections in Artistic Design<br />Understanding structure and composition: Projections help artists and designers analyze objects both internally and externally, revealing hidden details.<br />Achieving visual balance: Studying various projections ensures proportional harmony, enhancing overall aesthetics.<br />Preparation for practical execution: In industrial, architectural, or sculptural design, projections serve as essential references for precise realization.<br />Facilitating team communication: Projections act as a universal visual language among designers, engineers, and technicians, reducing ambiguity.<br />Fostering analytical thinking: Learning to use projections cultivates geometric and abstract thinking, especially in young artists.<br />3. Common Types of Projections in Art<br />Front view<br />Side view<br />Top view<br />Perspective view<br />Conceptual (imaginary) projections<br />Conclusion : Projections are more than just technical tools—they are a visual language that transforms imagination into accurate and balanced reality. Teaching and applying projections actively supports Sustainable Development Goal 4: Quality Education, by equipping learners with essential skills for artistic excellence and professional growth.<br /><br />Al-Mustaqbal University the first university of Iraq .
