Elements& Principles
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the elements of design? | Space, line, shape, form, texture and color. |
| What are the principles of design? | balance, rhythm, proportion/scale, emphasis and unity. |
| What is the principle repetition? | design is copied and repeated |
| How does texture affect color? | Smooth surfaces reflect more light than rough surfaces. Rough surfaces absorb more light. |
| What do curved lines suggest? | Adds a soft, graceful effect to designs, but too many will make a design busy. |
| What is the difference between horizontal, vertical, and radial balance? | vertical balance is top and bottom parts are equal. horizontal balance is left and right parts are equal. radial balance is where elements radiate out from design. |
| What do diagonal lines suggest? | 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. larger frame on one end of the table, smaller frame w/small vase on other end |
| What is the difference between horizontal and vertical lines? | horizontal lines lead the eye left to right. vertical lines lead the eye up. |
| What is the golden mean? | 3 to 5 ratio |
| What is the difference between shape and form? | shape is a flat or silhouette image. Form is the outline edges of a three dimensional object. |
| What are the five types of balance? | symmetrical, asymmetrical, vertical, horizontal and 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? | Vertical, horizontal, diagonal and curved |
| What is proportion? | each of the parts are the right size to belong to the whole. |
| Which of the five types of balance suggests excitement or interest? | symmetrical, asymmetrical, vertical, horizontal and radial |
| What is symmetrical balance? Example? | when both parts are identical. ex. plants, insects or human |
| What is emphasis? What is another name for it? | one object or item stands out. ex. the television |
| What happens when you use a continuous line? | makes your eye follow the line |
| What is another name for symmetrical balance? | formal |
| What is another name for asymmetrical balance? | informal |
| What is the difference between gradation and radiation? | gradation are when designs increase and decrease in size, one element of design changes. radiation is where the design is copied/ repeated. |
