| How does texture effect color? | smooth- brighter and lighter rough- darker and less intense |
| What do curved lines suggest? | soft and graceful |

| What do diagonal lines suggest? | action, movement, and excitement |
| What is space? | the area provided for a particular purpose |
| What are the four types of rhythm? | gradation, radiation, repetition, and continuous line |
| What is asymmetrical balance? example? | parts of the design are not identical but are equal in visual weight ex: one big candle on one side and two small ones on the other |
| What is the difference between horizontal and vertical lines? | horizontal- leads eye left to right, suggests informality and restfulness, room appears wider and shorter vertical- leads eye up, adds height, formality, and strength, room appears taller |

| What is emphasis? What is another name for it? | one object or item that stands out another name is focal point |
| What happens when you use a continuous line? | your eye follows it around the room |
| What is another name for symmetrical balance? | formal |
| What is another name for asymmetrical balance? | informal |
