| How does texture affect color? | Smooth surfaces reflect more light than rough surfaces -Making them brighter and lighter Rough surfaces absorb more light -Making them look darker and less intense Example: Red carpet looks darker and duller than red ceramic tile |
| What do curved lines suggest? | Adds a soft, graceful effect to designs |
| What is the difference between horizontal, vertical, and radial balance? | -Horizontal Balance: Left and Right parts are equal. -Vertical Balance: Top and Bottom parts are equal. -Radial Balance: Elements radiate out from design. |
| What do diagonal lines suggest? | Action, movement, and excitement. |
| What is space? | The area provided for a particular purpose. -Can have 2 dimensions: Floor -Can have 3 dimensions: Room or Dwelling |
| What are the four types of rhythm? | Gradation, Radiation, Repetition, Continuous Line. |
| What is asymmetrical balance? Example? | Parts of the design are not identical but are equal in visual weight. Example: Two chairs on the sides of a sofa. |
| What is the difference between horizontal and vertical lines? | Horizontal: Leads the eye from left to right. Vertical: Lead the eye up. |
