# Photo to Hand-Drawn Isometric Schematic Diagram

> Prompt to transform street photos into labeled isometric technical sketches

This prompt recipe directs Google's Nano Banana model to convert real-world street and architectural photos into hand-drawn isometric diagrams. The output mimics a pencil sketch on grid or graph paper, complete with curved leader lines and capitalized annotation labels for prominent landmarks. It is an effective technique for generating technical illustrations, travel graphics, and educational explainers directly from reference imagery.

## The prompt

Prompt: 'Create a hand drawn isometric schematic diagram of this street'. Demo result: pencil-sketch style drawing on grid/graph paper of the photo scene, with curved leader lines and uppercase labels for key elements (e.g. WATCHTOWER (LEFT), STONE BUILDINGS, STONE ARCH BRIDGE, FLAGS, CAFE TERRACE, RIVER NERETVA).

## What it is for

- Transform Google Maps street view photos into annotated architectural diagrams
- Generate hand-drawn explainer graphics for travel guides or historical landmarks
- Create blueprint-style isometric illustrations for presentations and design moodboards

## Key points

- Uses simple natural language targeting isometric perspective
- Renders scenes in a pencil-sketch aesthetic over graph/grid paper
- Generates curved leader lines with uppercase callout labels for key elements
- Preserves spatial relationships and major landmarks from input reference photos
