Product Design Elements

Shape:
Shape is, for me, a very important element to design. All design is created using shapes, without which design would have no form, and the world would have no form. Shape can either be regarded as geometric shapes, or the shaping of a material or object. Shape is the anchor of all form and relationships.

Movement:

I believe that movement is a very important aspect of design for many reasons. Movement is important because it is one of the most dominant forces in human experience. Movement is an aspect of design it is able to be felt and seen; for both functional and aesthetic purposes. Movement is often related to progression or change, from one state to another.

Scale:

Scale is another key aspect of design for me. The image above is a photo of a house in the desert. The original inspiration for the design came from the idea of a sushi roll. What the designer had created essentially in this house, was a large sushi roll, and it was all done through the use of scale. Scale is very important to design because it has the ability to manipulate the design's relativeness to its environment. Scale is also important because it can represent a balance, and a constant interaction in design.
