elements/principles
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what are the elements of design? | space, line, shape, form, color, texture |
| what are the principles of design? | balance, rhythm, proportion/scale, emphasis, unity |
| what is the principle repetition? | rhythm; design is copied or repeated |
| how does texture affect color? | smooth surfaces reflect more light, rough surfaces absorb more light. |
| what do curved lines suggest? | soft, graceful effect to a design |
| what is the difference between horizontal, vertical, and radial balance? | horizontal- left and right are equal vertical- top and bottom are equal radial- from middle out, everything is equal |
| 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, continuous line |
| what is an asymmetrical balance? Example? | parts of the design aren't identical but equal in visual weight. Ex. fridge |
| what is the difference between horizontal and vertical lines? | horizontal- leads eye left to right, room appears wider and shorter vertical- leads eye up, room appears taller |
| what is the golden mean? | 3 to 5 ratio |
| what is the difference between shape and form? | shape is the flat outline, form is the 3-D figure |
| what are the five types of balance? | symmetrical, asymmetrical, vertical, horizontal, radial |
| what does unity or harmony mean? | all elements and principles of design work together to create harmony |
| what are the two things texture involves? | how the surface feels to the touch and how it appears to feel |
| what are the four types of line? | horizontal, vertical, diagonal, curved |
| what is proportion? | how the design is visually divided |
| which or the five types of balance suggests excitement or interest? | radial balance |
| what is a symmetrical balance? Example? | when both parts are identical |
| what is emphasis? what is another name for it? | one object or item stands out; focal point |
| what happens when you use a continuous line? | design creates a continuous line for your eye to follow, makes the room feel bigger |
| 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 the size of the object changes or one element of design changes; radiation the line/design moves out from the center |
