7 Integral components used in the creation of a design: known as elements of art

 Shape

Positive shapes occupy positive space. The area around positive shapes, the background, is negative space. A solid piece of pattern occupies space, and makes the space around it come to life. In fact, the patterns think of the entire composition, the interplay between solid and space, when they create a work of art. In this diagram, the negative shapes are as clear and distinct as the positive shapes.

ስለ ቅርፅ/ shape ካወራን አይቀር tangram’ን እንናስተዋውቃችው /Regarding shape dear @etconp members let us introduce you to tangram

The tangram (Chinese: "seven boards of skill") is a dissection puzzle consisting of seven flat shapes, called tans, which are put together to form shapes. The objective of the puzzle is to form a specific shape (given only an outline or silhouette) using all seven pieces, which may not overlap. It is reputed to have been invented in China during the Song Dynasty, and then carried over to Europe by trading ships in the early 19th century. It became very popular in Europe for a time then, and then again during World War I. It is one of the most popular dissection puzzles in the world. A Chinese psychologist has termed the tangram "the earliest psychological test in the world", albeit one made for entertainment rather than analysis.

Architects use a variety of shapes in designing buildings, combining various shapes, modifying a single shape, repeating a single shape, and repeating combinations of shapes. Analyze the buildings to determine shapes have been used to design the building. How they are used and related to each other.

4. Form

The shape and structure of something as distinguished from its substance or material. Form is an element of art that is three dimensional and encloses volume. It includes height, width and depth (as in a cube, a sphere, a pyramid, or a cylinder). Form may also be free flowing. It is the illusion of a 3-D effect that can be implied with the use of light and shading techniques. Form can be viewed from many angles.
