  Step 1:  Layout and Architectural

Open a Report
The office layout has long been one of the banes of the business art world. An important planning tool for any business moving to a new location or rearranging its home office for efficiency, scale errors and last minute changes often played havoc with these plans. Fitting a 4-foot visitor's couch in a 3-foot space is what this form of art is supposed to prevent. Building fire escape plans, office location maps and building structural diagrams are a few of the many forms of business architectural art.
  Step 2:  Flowcharts and Schedules

The Management Organizational chart is perhaps one of the best known forms of flowcharts. It is but one of a great many forms of flowcharts used in the business world. Flowcharts are one of business' most versatile art tools. Marketing strategies, manufacturing processes, shipping stages, software development, and business efficiency studies are but a handful of the hundreds of flowcharts used in business. Time flowcharting is known as scheduling. Schedules are perhaps the most used form of flowchart.
  Step 3:  Technical Drawings

From circuit board design to office networking diagrams to parts assembly instructions, technical drawings have been a vital part of business art for very long time. From the first assembly instruction set that came with that special toy you bought with your allowance, you have been exposed to technical drawings. Technical drawings are one of the most important uses of business art in the area of production. No matter whether the product being produced is a Local Area Network or a model plane.
  Step 4:  Forms and Charts

There is no business today that does not make extensive use of forms. Usually not considered as business art, the form is vital for organization and record keeping. Inventories, employment applications, order forms, requests and the infamous I-238/B bug letter all have to be planned, laid out and may include logos, special icons and other drawings. Charts similarly are business art. From the classic medical chart to a timeline of the company's history, charts have been around as long as the form.
