For a “symmetrical sketch”: The middle line is essential to any designer.

Mother nature made most of the things on earth and outer space symmetrical.
Humans naturally create objects mostly symmetrical as well.

You may want to draw a spaceship, a razor, a lamp, a car, a fashion model…anything symmetrical, use the Middle line. It’s mostly applicable for the front view, and it becomes even more interesting from a perspective view.

See an example on this short video I extracted from the 7Days roll of Paper challenge.

Hello! I'm Chou-Tac, a Product Designer from France.

If the sketching methods I’ve acquired aid me in my life and in my industrial design career, I believe that they can also help you reach your dream goal as a student or professional designer.
