Question | Answer |
---|---|
What are the elements of design? | horizontal,vertical,diagonal,and curved lines. Form,space,textures, and pattern |
What are the principles of design? | balance,informal balance, repetition, gradation,continuous line, radiation,focal point,and harmony |
What is the principle repetition? | A design is copied or repeated |
How does texture affect color? | Smooth surfaces reflect more light, and rough surfaces absorb more light |
What do curved lines suggest? | Add a soft and graceful effect to designs, however too many make a design busy |
What is the difference between horizontal, vertical, and radial balance? | different parts of the designs are equal to each other(ex: bottom and top are equal vertically) |
What do diagonal lines suggest? | Action,movement,and excitement |
What is space? | An area that is provided for a particular purpose |
What are the four types of rhythm? | gradation,repetition,radiation,and continuous line |
What is asymmetrical balance? Example? | Parts of the design are not identical but are equal in visual weight(ex: |
What is the difference between horizontal and vertical lines? | Horizontal lines go left to right, and vertical goes up and down |
What is the golden mean? | 3-5 ratio |
What is the difference between shape and form? | Shape is a flat silhouette image and form is the outlines edges of a three dimensional object |
What are the five types of balance? | Asymmetrical,vertical,horizontal,and radial |
What does unity or harmony mean? | All elements and principles of design work together |
What are the two things texture involves? | The feel and appearance of an object |
What are the four types of line? | Horizontal,vertical,curved,and diagonal |
What is proportion? | Each of the items parts are the right size to belong to the whole |
Which of the five types of balance suggests excitement or interest? | diagonal |
What is symmetrical balance? Example? | When both parts of the item are identical(ex: butterfly) |
What is emphasis? What is another name for it? | One object that stands out(focal point) |
What happens when you use a continuous line? | Makes the eye follow the line |
What is another name for symmetrical balance? | Formal balance |
What is another name for asymmetrical balance? | Informal balance |
What is the difference between gradation and radiation? | Gradation is when an object goes from small to large or large to small, and radiation is designs that move from the center point |
