reflected ceiling plans

Plans that are viewed from above, but laid out as if they were projected downward onto the back of an upper surface, such as a ceiling. In such a plan all members seen on the left from below appear on the right in the plan. The term also refers to plans for ceilings depicted as if reflected in a mirror on the floor, within the context of the floor plan, with the goal of illustrating how the ceiling design or configuration relates to the floor plan.

Material Type

space planning

Discipline focusing on the composition of spaces, often but not always interior architectural spaces. It includes plans for the flow of the inhabitants or users of the space, adherence to building codes, environmental factors, and other such concerns. For the discipline focusing more on the aesthetic planning of spaces, prefer "interior architecture (discipline)."

Material Type

plans (orthographic projections)

refers to drawings, sketches, prints, computer graphics, or works in other media depicting a building or any object viewed from above, geometrically represented as projected on a horizontal plane. The term is particularly used to refer to drawings or other images showing the relative positions of all the parts of a building, or of the parts of any one floor, roof, or other part of a building in horizontal section; it is thus distinguished from vertical sections or elevations. The term can also be used collectively to refer to sets of drawings or other images for a project, including plans per se as well as other drawings, such as sections. For general reference to depictions or photographs showing structures or sites seen from directly above, use "plan views." For representations of portions of the Earth's surface use "maps" or "plans (maps)"
