Elaboration: a principle of design concerned with the arrangement of one or more of the elements so that they give a sense of equilibrium in design and proportion (e.g., radial, symmetrical, or asymmetrical)
|
| Keyword: pattern |
Elaboration: a design in which shapes, colours or lines repeat with regularity
|
| Keyword: repetition |
Elaboration: using the same object, colour, marking, or type of line more than once
