Create an Isometric Round City Building in Adobe Illustrator

Round buildings are really popular in isometric design these days. They look great but are a challenge to make in Adobe illustrator. Circles and ovals are always more difficult to create in an isometric projection, but it’s easier than you think and I’ll show you how. I’ve created a step by step tutorial to show you how to create them in Adobe illustrator CC!

[@DavidLeeSirHope]

Love your videos, I have a really hard design that Im working on but can not figure out how to fix it. Im making a anglied building and it has see thru windows..i figured out how to get the sides but i cant figure out the back..any tips? Its basicly a pyramid without the point on top...

[@Vectortwist]

Sounds like a cool design. I would go about the back following (if it is in isometric view): You can temporarily turn off the fill of the sides, so you can see the back (or where the shapes need to go for the back). That will give you a good idea where your windows will be and what should be seen through. Basically a reference model just with the strokes, no fill, or set the fill to a lower opacity so you can see where the back shapes need to go. Let me know if this makes any sense to you.

[@sakreth1113]

Nice tutorial, helped a lot! But how can I make a cylinder from left or right view if I want to draw pipes?

[@Vectortwist]

You can do it with the 3D revolve took.

[@nhdgraphic2153]

greAT

[@richardhall5489]

Great tutorial, thanks.
Would you still draw this builing the same way or would you now use the 3D effects in Illustrator? I'm just learning so apologies if that's a dumb question.

[@richardhall5489]

So I just got pretty much the same effect as follows:
Draw a circle.
Effect > 3D> Extrude & Bevel to make a tall cylinder
Draw a window then duplicate H & V and turn it into a symbol
Select the cylinder
Edit the 3D effect from the properties panel
Click the option Map Art > choose the Cylinder Face (out of the 3 surfaces available) > Select the windows symbol I just made and it's magically wrapped around the cylinder!

[@Vectortwist]

you can use any tools that make it easy for you :)

[@mmshasan]

That was awesome. Lucky I found your channel

[@Vectortwist]

thanks :)

@@adnanjanujaz822 I am working on more step by step tutorials, any areas of Illustrator you are struggling with?

[@adnanjanujaz822]

@@Vectortwist , I am struggling with shading in illustrator. I don't have a pen tablet and I feel that's not a major hindrance. If you could help me in getting the shading techniques right, I would be really grateful to you. I don't want character shading, but shading for general illustrations like a leaf or a building or a piece of lettering .

[@sarah.ashley.]

I am unable to offset the path by -3px. Why?

[@Vectortwist]

It could be that your shapes are too small and -3px is too big?

[@SuyashGoel]

you could use transform or 3d tool for this why spending too much for this simple task🤔

[@Vectortwist]

Because there are many ways to do things
