Backrooms drawing: draw the endless yellow halls

1. 01

   Set the horizon and vanishing point

   Draw a light horizontal line a little below the middle of the page and mark one dot on it. Every depth line will run to this dot.

2. 02

   Draw the end wall

   Draw a small rectangle around the dot. This is the far end of the corridor and controls how deep it feels: smaller means longer.

3. 03

   Connect the corners

   From each corner of the page, rule a line to the matching corner of the small rectangle. You now have walls, floor and ceiling.

4. 04

   Add doorways

   On each wall, draw tall vertical lines for door edges, then join their tops toward the vanishing point. Doors further away get thinner.

5. 05

   Ceiling lights and carpet

   Draw flat rectangles on the ceiling that shrink toward the dot. A few dashes on the floor give the carpet texture.

6. 06

   Wallpaper and color

   Add thin vertical stripes or a simple repeating pattern on the walls, then color everything in muted yellow and beige.
