Shape is a perceivable area (think silhouette). The way we treat our lines establishes a particular/dominant mood or emotion. There is also “implied line,” where a line doesn’t really exist, but appears to be present. Lines can be made on their own, or they can be created where two shapes meet. Hierarchy is a manipulation of elements to create movement through a work.Ī line is the path of a point, or the connection between two points. Movement is the visual path our eye follows. Variety is the relative diversity and change throughout a piece. For example, a caricature exaggerates the proportion of one or more facial features, while installations in sculpture gardens often have a very large scale.Ĭontrast is the relative difference between two or more elements. Proportion is the relative size of objects within a work. Unity or harmony is the visually satisfying effect of combining similar, related elements to create a sense of oneness, wholeness, or order in a work of art. Contrast in elements is one of the most common ways to create focus. The focus or emphasis is the object or element which first catches our attention. Both repetition and rhythm are often found in patterns.
Repetition is a repeating visual element (line, shape, pattern, texture, movement), and rhythm is its flowing and regular occurrence.
There are three types of balance: symmetrical (one half mirrors the other), asymmetrical (dissimilar items balance each other out), and radial (elements are spread out circularly from a central point) Light and value help provide a sense of space and depth around an object.īalance is the equalizing of the visual weight of elements. The relative lightness or darkness of an area. Human perception of different wavelengths of visible light Component parts include hue (the name of the color example: blue), saturation (purity or intensity of the color), value (relative lightness or darkness of the color). Texture can be actual (tactile) or implied. Texture is the perceived look, feel, or quality of a surface. 3D Design Elements of Three-Dimensional WorkĪ continuous area or expanse surrounding or enclosed by mass (holes and cavities)Īn enclosed volume or three-dimensional body of matter making up the area of an objectĪ line is the path of a point, or the connection between two points.
