Question | Answer |

What are the elements of design? | Space ,line ,shape, form, texture and color. |
What are the principles of design? | Balance, proportion/scale, unity, and emphasis |
What is the principle repetition? | Design is copied our repeated |
How does texture affect color? | Smooth surfaces appear lighter becuase the reflect light, rather than rough bumpy surfaces which appear darker because the absorb light. |
What do curved lines suggest? | suggest comfort, safety, familiarity, relaxation. They recall the curves of the human body, and therefore have a pleasing, sensual quality. |
What is the difference between horizontal, vertical, and radial balance? | horizontal-left and right parts are equal verticle-top and bottom parts are equal radial-elements radiate out from design |
What do diagonal lines suggest? | action, movement and excitment |
What is space? | The area provided for particular purpose-can be either 2-D or 3-D |
What are the 4 types of rhythm? | Gradation, radiation, repetition, and continuous line |
What is assymetrical balance? | Parts of the design are not identicle but are equal in weight |
What is the difference between horizontal and verticle lines? | Horizontal lines make the room appear longer/wider and verticle lines make the room appear taller |
What is the golden mean? | 3 to 5 ratio of visual performance |
What is the difference between shape and form? | Shape is 2-D and form is 3-D |
What are the 5 types of balance? | Symmetrical, assymetrical, horizontal, verticle and radial |
What does unity or harmony mean? | All elements and principles of design are working together to create harmony |
What are the 2 things texture involves? | How surface feels to the touch (tactile) and how surface appears to feel (visual) |
What are the 4 types of line? | Horizontal, verticle, diagonal and curved |
What is proportion? | Each of the parts are the right size to belong to the whole |
