Methods for representing 3D space on a two-dimensional medium include parallel and central projection. Parallel projection is simpler to use, because lengths and angles are not deformed, and it is used at the beginning of geometry education. However, for a clearer visual perception of 3D space, it is more suitable to use the central projection (perspective), which shows the space as we see it. For students of architecture, it will be shown how Rhinoceros software can solve some problems within the primary course of Descriptive Geometry. The Rhinoceros desktop displays 3 orthogonal projections and a perspective view simultaneously. In the paper, it will be shown how the breakthrough problems of rounded solids can be solved more simply using the software Rhinoceros by teachers.
