Use a ruler or straightedge to draw the rectangle so all of the lines are neat and straight.

The triangle should be around the same height as the rectangle. If you make it too tall it won’t look realistic.

The number of panels you draw doesn’t matter, but try to keep the space between each panel the same.

You can draw as many windows as you want, but remember to leave some space for the door.

If you want your house to have a front step, draw a thin, horizontal rectangle at the bottom of the door.

The proportions of your cube don’t need to be exact, but make sure it’s not too short and narrow or tall and wide or your house might not look realistic.

When you’re finished, erase any extra lines that are inside of the shape you just drew.

Erase any extra lines that are inside of the house’s frame.

You can also add a small, square window in the center of the gable (the triangle-shaped part of the wall) if you’d like.

Once you have the basic structure of your house, you can customize it by adding new rooms, a garage, more doors, or any other additions that you think your house should have! You can also color in your house when you’re finished to make it pop.
