16
Q

RADIAL Symmetry

A

All elements are arranged around A CENTER POINT

17
Q

ASYMETICAL BALANCE

A

Weight of composition (object / Interior) = NOT EVENLY DISTRIBUTED

->different sized / weighed elements are arrange to create Harmony

-> NO MIRRORING (along axis)

18
Q

Spatial depth

A

the Greater the DEPTH -> the Greater the WIGHT it carries

19
Q

Size

A

the Greater the OBJECT -> the HEAVIER it appears

20
Q

Shape

A

GEOMETIRCAL = heavier than ORGANIC

21
Q

Colour

A

SATURATED = heavier than Neutral

22
Q

Intrinsic interest

A

complexity subject / symbolic meaning HEAVY

23
Q

Isolation

A

EMPHASIS

(object draws attention when there is nothing competition agains it)

24
Q

Material

A

ACTUAL / IMAGINED weight
(physical wight Stone is heavier the a ballon)
