The technique or system of creating axonometric projections; a method of representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions using parallel lines.
From Greek 'axon' (axis) + 'metria' (measurement). It names the practice or measurement system behind axonometric drawings.
Before computers could rotate 3D objects on screens, axonometry was the secret weapon for showing how things actually looked in space—draftsmen trained for years to master these geometric relationships by hand.
