Elements of Design- Shape & Form

8
A shape is defined as an area that stands out from the space next to or around it due to a defined or implied boundary, or because of differences of value, color, or texture. A form is an object having three dimensions like length, width and depth. 


A shape or outline seen from a distance is called a silhouette.It can reveal or hide a natural body contour. Full, wide shapes make you look bigger. Trim, compact silhouettes make you look smaller. Straight, tubular shapes make you look taller. Form fitting clothes reveal any unattractive contours, should only been worn by figures that are near-perfect.
