Elements & Principles of Floral Design
Elements of Floral DesignThe directly observable components, ingredients, and physical characteristics of a design.
Elements of Floral DesignLineFormSpaceTexturePatternFragranceSizeColor
LineThe visual pathway that directs eye movement through a compositionDistance between two points
Line directions:Vertical linesstress height and suggest power and strengthHorizontal linesstress width and are peaceful and calm, provide a sense of stabilityDiagonal linedynamically energetic, causing more eye movement. Use sparinglyCurved linesuggest motion, but are softer, more comforting. Eye moves quickly through design.
Vertical line--Power and strength
Horizontal linePeaceful and calm
Diagonal lineDynamically energetic, suggest motion
Curved lineSofter suggestion of motion
Formthe shape or configuration of an individual component of the composition. The overall, three-dimensional, geometric shape or configuration of a floral composition.
Spacethe area in, around, and between the components of the design, defined by the three-dimensional area occupied by the composition.Positive spaceNegative space
TextureThe surface quality of a material, as perceived by sight or touchSmooth, coarse, waxy, rough, delicate, velvety

PatternA repeated combination of line, form, color, texture, and/or space.Variegated markings, specklesAny element used more than once
Pattern
Patternwhat is repeated
FragranceA sweet or pleasing odor, perceived by the sense of smell.heightens our awareness increases sensory enjoymenttriggers memory
Using all 5 senses
SizeThe physical dimensions of line, form, or spaceFirst considerationsEmotional aspect
ColorThe visual response of the eye to reflected rays of lightmost important design elementOptical sensation, originating in the brains perception of light energy reflected to the eye from a pigmented surface.Emotional response
Color
Principles of Floral DesignPrinciples of design-fundamental guidelines to aesthetic design that govern the organization of the elements and materials in accordance with the laws of nature. Some primary principals of design are associated with related secondary principles of design.

Balancegives a sense of equilibrium and repose, a feeling of three-dimensional stability..Physical also known as mechanical balancesoundVisual balancesense of equilibrium
Easily falls overOr looks like it will easily tip over
Visually balanced
Balancesymmetrical balanceknown as formal balance, flowers are repeated on opposite sides of the floral arrangement. Using an imaginary central axis, one side of the arrangement is the mirror image of the other.Asymmetrical balanceknown as informal balance. Formed by placing unequal visual weight on each side of a central vertical axis.
BalanceRadial balanceradiate from a central point like the spokes of a wheel or the rays of the sun.
Symmetrical-one side mirrors the otherAsymmetrical-two sides are dissimilar but have equal visual weight or equal eye attraction which creates visual balance
Symmetrical vs. Asymmetrical
Radial BalanceRadial balance--Not separate from symmetrical or asymmetrical, but merely a fine distinction of one or the other
Radial Balance
Symmetrical but too perfectrendering a contrived and fake appearance
Near symmetricalNot symmetrical in placement but arranged in a near-symmetrical pattern to form a balanced, formal shape
ProportionThe comparative relationship in size, quantity, and degree of emphasis among components within the composition; the relationship of one portion to another, or of one portion to the whole.design should be 1 to 2 times the height or width of the container
Greek golden section in which the ration of vase to flowers is 3 to 5 or roughly 5 to 8
Golden mean refers to the division of a line somewhere between and 1/3 its lengthFlower design slightly off center
Overall size of a floral arrangement or its parts compared with other objects or their parts. Scale floral elements with each other
ScaleThe relative ratio of size, or the relationship of the size of a composition to the surrounding area or environment.
Arrangements should fit on the table physically and visually and be in proportion to the surrounding area
Small table small room small arrangement
Large to permit viewing from a distance
DominanceThe visual organization within a design that emphasizes one or more aspects. When one element is emphasized, others are subordinate.
EmphasisThe special attention or importance given to one or more areas within a design.Directs eye to more important areas
Focal AreaThe area of greatest visual impact or weight; the center of interest to which the eye is most naturally drawn.Center of gravity or balanceWhere eye is drawnWhere the eye restsOne element different than others
Focal Point

AccentDetail added to a design to provide additional interest, affecting the total character of the composition.EnlivensDash of something

Accent
RhythmFlow or movement characterized by regular recurrence of elements or featuresUse repeated patterns and graceful spacing. The goal is to create a visual pathway that leads the viewers eye around and through the design, then back to the focal point.
DepthThree-dimensional arrangementoverlap or angle flowersplace bright, dark flowers on the bottom of the arrangement, lighter and smaller at the top
RepetitionThe recurrence of like elements within a composition
Repetition
TransitionThe ease of visual movement which results from gradual degrees of change among one or more of the elements
ContrastEmphasis by means of difference.
Contrast--color
OppositionContrast between elements which are counterpoint in relation to each other.Call attention to each other by being opposite whereas contrast is simply different from each other
Oppositionblack & white
Contrast in color simplest way to create strong focal point
TensionImplying or suggesting a sense of energyPolaritydrawn together or pushed apartKnot a leaf-energy has been exerted or appliedNew bulb forcing out of soilReady to spring or snap
Tensionsomething is waiting to happen
VariationDissimilarity among attributes or characteristics.Diversity among elementsVary stages of developmentAll one color of flower, but different flowers
Proximity-combining flowers into one designRepetition-repeating similar elements such as colorTransition-providing a gradual change from one part of a design to another
HarmonyCompatibility; a pleasing or congruent arrangement of parts. All parts should go together or harmonize with each other.
Lack a sense of harmony
Harmony by added accessories which support football or homecoming theme
All component parts of a floral composition should harmonize with one another. It is vital that the flowers in a design are compatible with one another in order to support an overall design style.
Terra-cotta post and blush tones flowers create a casual garden ambiance for this celebration setting. Harmony of the parts displays unity in design
Unity--the state of being one, united, or complete in itself. The arrangement is seen as a whole piece instead of only individual parts.Oneness of purpose, thought, style, and spirit.
Accessories Candles Plums, kiwi enhance an overall harmonious theme
