Lines.
1. is the most basic art and design element2. is the simplest and most fundamental form of communication3. has length , tone, and texture.
4. may divide space, define a form, describe contour, suggest direction.
A line is a dot that went for a walk." - Paul Klee.
ypes of line
STRAIGHT LINE
T
STRAIGHT LINE: A line traced by a point traveling in a constant direction; a line ofzero curvature;“The shortest distance between two points is a straight line"
CURVE LINE
CURVE LINE:
A line which is not straight with no sharp edges is called a curve. It is a smoothly flowing line. In mathematics, straight line is also called as curve.
Plane
• a surface generated by a straight line moving at a constant velocity with respect to a fixed point.
• a longitudinal section through the axis of a column.

Horizontal plane
Base plane:
• Seems to be figured out when there is a perspective change in color and texture• With edge definition• With surface attraction
Elevated plane:
• Edge will well defined• Visual spatial continuity interrupted
VILLA SAVOYE PARIS
Depressed plane:
• Vertical surface of depression establishes boundaries• By contrasting form, geometry or orientation
Overhead Plane:
pening
Creates continuity ,space and relation with plane & nature
Creates harmony and rhythm in composition using solid and void
