Across
- 3. Adds depth and dimension to a floral arrangement. By combining flowers and foliage with different textures (smooth, rough, soft, etc.), you can create a more engaging and dynamic composition.
- 4. This principle ensures that the arrangement feels stable and visually pleasing. It can be symmetrical (evenly balanced on both sides) or asymmetrical (different but still balanced).
- 6. Refers to the visual flow or movement created by the arrangement. It can be achieved through repetition of shapes, colors, or patterns, leading the viewer’s eye through the design.
- 8. Involves using opposing elements (such as colors, shapes, or textures) to create visual interest and draw attention. This can enhance the overall impact of the arrangement.
- 10. A focal point is the main area of interest in an arrangement. It draws the viewer's attention and can be created using a standout flower, an interesting shape, or a contrasting color.
Down
- 1. Refers to the size relationship between different elements in the arrangement. It’s important that the flowers, foliage, and container complement each other in size, creating a harmonious look.
- 2. Refers to the visual path that leads the viewer’s eye through the arrangement. It can be created through the placement of stems, the shape of the flowers, or the overall silhouette of the design.
- 5. Plays a vital role in setting the mood and tone of an arrangement. Understanding color theory—complementary, analogous, and monochromatic schemes—can help create harmony and impact.
- 7. This principle emphasizes the unity of the design, where all elements—colors, shapes, and textures—work together to create a cohesive look. Creates a sense of peace and wholeness in the design.
- 9. Relates to the overall size of the arrangement in relation to its surroundings and the space it occupies. A large arrangement may overwhelm a small space, while a tiny arrangement may get lost in a large area.
