3. Shape  Two dimensional  Made by connecting lines  Circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, ovals, diamonds…

4.  Shape is a 2 dimensional object  Shape is defined as the framework, or identifiable structure of an object.

6. 1. You will be split into 2 even groups. Each person needs a different colored pencil. 2. Sit in a circle at the tables. 3. On the paper provided write all of your names. 4. The paper will start with the person who is tallest in the group. The paper will go around the group in clockwise motion. 5. We are constructing a beautiful and unique artwork creation. Each person has to add a shape to the picture but the same shape cannot be used more than 2 times. 6. Your group can create any picture you desire but make sure you can explain what it is to the class. 7. The group that makes it around to the tallest person the most times in 5 minutes wins!

9. Refers to the shape and the structure of solid objects. Form  Three dimensional  Encloses space  Spheres, cylinders, cones, cubes, pyramids… Chairs & Couches

10.  Form can be used to achieve certain effects. › Large heavy objects such as a piano or sofa, give the feeling of stability. Their massive appearance adds a solid feeling to a room. › Placing several small objects together can create the same feelings. › Long, low tables achieve the same effect because of their shape.

11.  Some forms, like rugs and walls, have length and width but little or no depth  Forms, like chairs and furniture, have depth in addition to length and width  A designer is more concerned with an object’s apparent visual weight than it’s actual weight.  ie: beige sofa against a beige wall vs. a sofa with a denim slip cover against a light colored wall.  Form gives a feeling of stability: large heavy objects such as a piano or sofa, cluster of objects like two chairs and a table,or placing several small objects together.

12. RECTLINEAR FORMS This form is the most commonly used in our homes. Characteristics include: 1.This form fits easily on drafting boards, building sites and machines in factories. 2.These forms fit together well and conserve space. 3.This form feels stable and secure because of 90 degree angles. 4.This form establishes unity and rhythm when repeated. Basic shape & form: There is danger of this form feeling harsh or monotonous. However, when placed on a diagonal, it becomes a dynamic element. In summary, these shapes create many different effects, depending on the way they are used, the size, the color, and placement. Examples: Some examples of square and rectangular shapes used in a house are: refrigerators, beds, pillows, dish washer, rugs, windows, and doors; ANGULAR FORMS Characteristics: Angular forms include triangles and pyramids. These are found in most sloping roofs. In modern homes, they also used as angled walls, which add a great deal of life to a room. They are more flexible than rectangles because the angles can be manipulated in many ways. Basic Shape & Form: They are the stronger shape. Diagonals usually make things look larger. They also suggest motion and are less common, so they hold attention. Examples: Some examples of triangular shapes used in our homes: window treatments, Christmas tree, and accessories.

13. CURVED FORMS Curved forms combine continuity and change. They bring to mind things found in nature: flowers, trees, bodies, or clouds. Circles and spheres have unique Characteristics & Qualities: 1. They are conservative and economical forms because they resist breakage. 2. They remind us of motion, probably because they remind us of balls. 3. They provide great unity – every point on the edge is equidistant from the center. Basic Shape, form, & examples: We usually do not find a home that is made from rectangles, triangles, or circles, however, we do find combinations of these various shapes. CIRCLE SQUARE TRIANGLE CYLINDER CONE PYRAMID

14.  Rectilinear ; mirrors, pillows, trays, rugs, windows and doors  Angular; “triangles” window treatments, Christmas tree, accessories  Circular; picture frames, clocks, rugs

15. 4. Shape Puzzle Use the papers (located on the front table) to create a design. The design must be of an actual object that is tangible. This design is a way to use your creative side and does not have guidelines or limits. After you have created the design, write a description of what you created. Include in this description your interpretation of your design and what it represents to you. (See example on board)

17.  Create 2 different origami designs, instructions are located at the front desk.
