    Elements of Design:

    • Space: Open areas in a design. Three-dimensional and spaces within plant material and components established by designer.
    • Color: Visual sensations, reflected light, color hue, lightness or darkness, intensity or dullness.
    • Light: Illumination by natural or artificial means affecting shadow, color and visibility.
    • Line: Linear form establishing the structural framework of the design. Creates visual path within a design.
    • Form: Contour of three dimensional material – open or closed, regular or irregular.
    • Size: Visual size of design – large, small, delicate, bold, heavy, etc.
    • Pattern: Combination of lines, shapes, solids and spaces.  Color and use of plant material, container and background.
    • Texture: Surface finish of material – rough or smooth, course or fine, dull or glossy, hard or soft.  Variety adds interest, avoids monotony.

    Design Principles:

    • Balance:  Visual stability- equal weight on each side (may be symmetrical or asymmetrical).
    • Rhythm:  Dominant visual path through a design, suggesting motion by the ·repetition of shape, color or size of materials.  Larger at bottom, smaller at top.
    • Proportion: Relationship of materials to each other.   Not too large or too small – not too little or too much in comparison to something else. 
    • Scale:  Keeping all elements in good size – one to the other.  Design should be at least 1 1/2 times the container height or width. Dominance:  A part of the design that implies greater importance, while other elements are subordinate.
    • Contrast: Opposite or unlike qualities that emphasize differences in elements and materials used in design
