So we have been talking a lot about space. Chapter 5 shows how a simple outline that encloses an are becomes a shape.
1. Shape can be thought of as a combination of two design elements: line and space. Negative or positive a line can define it's shape. Even without a an actual line, you can define shape with implied lines.
2 . Shape of a three dimensional object is termed "volume." Volume gives the appearance of depth or weight. Volume is how much space the shape contains.
So in looking at shape it comes down to perception. We are all taught shapes a very young ages but shape is a very valuable design tool.
Then we move to chapter 6 , Value.
7. Relativity is when the value of an area seems to be altered by other values that are nearby. It's effects are shown when a dark value is placed by light values making it appear even darker. So the main affect of relativity on value is it can appear to change the value, however it doesn't change it is just visually altered by perception of the eye.
9. Contrast is a difference. In value it is the difference of values in an image. When you have extreme light and dark the contrast is high. When you have lots of similar values there is not much contrast. Since contrast is relative, there can be high and low contrast throughout an image.
