  2. Formal balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_balance

    Formal balance, also called symmetrical balance, is a concept of aesthetic composition involving equal weight and importance on both sides of a composition. [1] [2 ...

  3. Symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry

    This article describes symmetry from three perspectives: in mathematics, including geometry, the most familiar type of symmetry for many people; in science and nature; and in the arts, covering architecture, art, and music. The opposite of symmetry is asymmetry, which refers to the absence of symmetry.

  4. Visual weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_weight

    The visual weight and the balance of a figure inserted in an image can be determined using the lightness of the figure, the lightness of the ground and their sizes and positions interactions in the composition visual. We establish that an image is totally balanced when the resultant force is located in the geometric center of the image.

  6. Mannerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannerism

    Where High Renaissance art emphasizes proportion, balance, and ideal beauty, Mannerism exaggerates such qualities, often resulting in compositions that are asymmetrical or unnaturally elegant. [3] Notable for its artificial (as opposed to naturalistic) qualities, [ 4 ] this artistic style privileges compositional tension and instability rather ...

  7. Asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetry

    Asymmetry is the absence of, or a violation of, symmetry (the property of an object being invariant to a transformation, such as reflection). [1] Symmetry is an important property of both physical and abstract systems and it may be displayed in precise terms or in more aesthetic terms. [2]

  8. Visual communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_communication

    As for balance, it is important to have symmetrical or asymmetrical balance in visual communication. Symmetrical balance holds a stable composition and is proper in conveying informative visual communication. As for asymmetrical balance, the balance of visuals is weighted more to one side. For instance, color is more weighted to one color than ...

  9. Floral design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_design

    Physical balance is the distribution of materials and weight across the arrangement; the arrangement should be stable and not at risk of falling over. Visual balance is the poise an arrangement contains upon first glance. There are three types of visual balance: symmetrical, asymmetrical, and open.
