| How does texture affect color? | Smooth surfaces reflect more light while rough surfaces absorb more light |

| What do diagonal lines suggest? | suggest action, movement and excitment |
| What is space? | The area provided for particular purpose |
| What are the four types of rhythm? | gradation, radiation, repetition, continous lines |
| What is asymmetrical balance? Example? | Parts of the design are not identical but are equal in visual weight (informal balance). |
