Elif,
I hope I understand your question, here’s goes. When I present a project to a client I bring pictures of plants and I try and draw quick perspesctives or elevations of the job. A lot of people can not visualize a plan view into a real life project. They have not had the training we have and don’t look at plans as we do. When I go to their home or office I try and situate the plan with them looking at the front door of the home on the plan or if the project is in the back garden, I face the plan with them looking at the back garden area with their back to the back door. We have all been taught to face the project with NORTH to the top or the right of page on which we are drawing. I will place the project on the sheet the way I feel my client will have the easiest way to see what is going on. (Most people have no idea where the NORTH is on the plan). I am not meaning to sound simplistic but it seems to work for me. Good Luck!
