  2. Image schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_schema

    Experientially basic and primarily spatial image schemas such as the Containment schema and its derivatives the Out schemas lend their logic to non-spatial situations. For example, one may metaphorically use the term out to describe non-spatial experiences: (4) Leave out that big log when you stack the firewood.

  3. Spatiality (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatiality_(architecture)

    Spatiality is a term used in architecture for characteristics that, looked at from a certain aspect, define the quality of a space. [1] In comparison to the term spaciousness, which includes formal, dimensional determination of size—depth, width or height—spatiality is a higher category term.

  4. Spatialism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatialism

    An example of the slashed type (the slash made with a razor blade) is Spatial Concept Waiting (1960, Tate, London). Although Fontana's ideas were vague, his outlook was influential, for he was one of the first, certainly the first Latin American and European artist to truly promote the idea of art as gesture or performance, rather than as the ...

  5. Cartographic generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartographic_generalization

    Exaggeration is the partial adjustment of geometry or symbology to make some aspect of a feature larger than it really is, in order to make them more visible, recognizable, or higher in the visual hierarchy. For example, a set of tight switchbacks in a road would run together on a small-scale map, so the road is redrawn with the loops larger ...

    The following aspects are some of the characteristics to examine a spatial network: [1] Planar networks; In many applications, such as railways, roads, and other transportation networks, the network is assumed to be planar. Planar networks build up an important group out of the spatial networks, but not all spatial networks are planar.

  8. Spatial design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_design

    Spatial design is a relatively new conceptual design discipline that crosses the boundaries of traditional design specialisms such as architecture, landscape architecture, landscape design, interior design, urban design and service design as well as certain areas of public art.

  9. Scene graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scene_graph

    In vector-based graphics editing, each leaf node in a scene graph represents some atomic unit of the document, usually a shape such as an ellipse or Bezier path.Although shapes themselves (particularly paths) can be decomposed further into nodes such as spline nodes, it is practical to think of the scene graph as composed of shapes rather than going to a lower level of representation.
