Principles of Design

Proportion-This lamp does not show a good example of proportion because it is far too large. Everything else in the room is normal sized, even some things tiny, and the lamp itself should not be bigger than the couch, that is just outrageous.

Q

Variety-This is a good example of variety because there are all different styles and it incorporates different designs that still makes the room go together.

Q

Unity-This is a great example of unity because the bedspread, the pillow, the walls, and pillows by the window all match and go together by the colors used that make them harmonious.

Q

Scale-This is a good example of scale because the dining room table and the chairs have a good scale to each other(if you sat down in a chair at the table it would be the correct size, not too big for the table or too small.)

Q

Emphasis-This is a perfect example of emphasis because the painting in the room is immediately the first thing your eyes go to, it is the first to catch a viewer's attention, which means it has emphasis

Q

Radiation Rhythm-This is a good example of radiation because the lines from the ceiling radiate or move outward.

Q

Repetition Rhythm-This is a good example of repetition rhythm because the plants repeat.

Q

Opposition(Rhythm)-This is a good example of opposition rhythm because in the decor on the wall all the lines are coming together to form right angles

Q

Asymmetrical Balance-This is a good example of asymmetrical balance because if you cut a line down the middle everything is not identical, but it comes together in a way to still appear balanced

Q

Symmetrical Balance-This is a perfect example of symmetrical balance because if you cut a line down the middle, everything is perfectly balanced and identical.

Q

Texture-This is a good example of texture because the rug/blanket on the end of the bed has the visual texture of being very soft and plush, and it would probably be the same for the tactile texture.

Q

Large Space-This is a good example of a large space because it is wide and the space is used well enough so that it does not feel empty, but rather gives people a feeling of luxury.

Q

Small Space-This is a good example of a small space because everything is very tight and confined in the room, making people feel crowded.

Q

Form-This is a splendid example of 3d form because your eyes go right to the chair in the room, which has a lot of depth, meaning it is 3d.

Q

This is a wonderful example of 2d form because the focal point of the image is the painting, which barely raises off the wall, meaning it does not have a lot of depth(2d).

Q

This is a perfect example of a curved line because curved lines are graceful and calm, and using curved lines in this staircase portrays it as elegant and graceful and very modern.

Q

This is a good example of a diagonal line because these lines convey excitement and movement and this is a kid's room which is perfect because children have lots of energy and their playrooms are full of toys and excitement.

Q

Vertical Lines-This is a bad example of vertical lines because they convey action and since this is a bedroom it should be representing relaxation.

Q

Horizontal Line-This is an excellent example of a horizontal line because you immediately look to the walls because of the horizontal lines that stand out. These lines indicate an atmosphere of rest and relaxation which is good because it is a bedroom.
