Polish term or phrase: w osi (w osi fasady, w osi parceli, w oryginalnej osi budynku itp)
polskie określenie stosowane bardzo często w tekstach z dziedziny architektury, projektowania itp

Widzę całkiem dużo przypadków w Google gdzie mamy ''in the axis of...'' ale większość wydaje mi się nienatywna (po nazwiskach autorów publikacji wychodzi mi, że może być to termin francuski skalkowany do polskiego i innych języków słowiańskich).

Być może jednak ja się nie znam, czepiam i w branży się używa.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Frank, thank you -- this certainly works very well for a building, not so well for a facade though. I think the problem is that the Polish usage covers both the center-line, the any-other-line (eg when an element is shifted vertically from let's say foundation level to the ground floor but kept in the same -- what? line? orientation and position? -- and the direction/orientation on its own (eg the angle of the building in relation to the road etc). Actually ''orientation'' might work in some cases. But it doesn't include the same-orientation-and-position-in-2D-but-shifted-vertically.
