Question | Answer |
---|---|
what are the elements of design? | space, line, shape, color, texture. |
what are the principals of design? | balance,rhythm,proportion/scale,emphasis and unity. |
what is the principal of repetition? | when the design is copied or repeated. |
how does texture affect color? | smooth surfaces relfect more light than rough surfaces making them brighter and lighter. also, rough surfaces absorb more light making them look darker and less intense. |
what do curved lines suggest? | adds a soft, graceful effect to the designand to many will make design busy.. |
what is the difference between vertical, horizontal and radial balance? | vertical is when the top adn the bottom parts are equal. horizontal is when the left adn right parts are equal . radial is when the elements radiate out from design. |
what do diagonal lines suggest? | actions, movement, and excitment. |
what is space | he area provided for a particular purpose. |
what are the 4 types of rhythm? | gradation,radiation,repetition, and continious line. |
what is an asymmetrical balance? give an example. | .parts if the design are not identical, but are equal in visul weight. example: one big item on one side of the mantel looks equal when you put a lot of little items on the other side. |
what is the difference between vertical and horizontal lines? | vertical leads your eye up and horizontal leads the eye from left to right. |
what is the golden mean? | . 3 to 5 ratio. |
what is the difference between shape and form? | shape is 2-d and form is 3-d |
what are the 5 types of balance? | symmertical , asymmetrical, vertical, horizontal, and radial. |
what does unity or harmony mean? | all elemnts and principles of design work together to create harmony. |
what are the 2 things texture involves? | how surface feels to the touch and how it appears to feel |
what are the 4 types of line? | vertical, horizontal, diagonal, and curved. |
what is proportion? | how the design is visually divided. |
Which of the five types of balance suggests excitement or interest? | asymmetrical. |
What is symmetrical balance? Example? | when both parts are identical. example: plants, insects and humans. |
What is emphasis? What is another name for it? | one object or item that stands out. another name for it is focal point. |
What happens when you use a continuous line? | creats line for the eye to follow. |
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 increases/decreases in size and one element of the design changes. radiation is when lines/ designs move out from the center point |
