TEXTURE: The surface quality of a form: rough, smooth, weathered, and so on.ĬOLOR: In 3D design, the actual color of the material being used. Value changes might be affected by the addition of color to the surface of a work.

VALUE: Light and shadows on the surface of forms quantity of light actually reflected by an object's surface. Sometimes referred to as occupied and unoccupied space.

Negative space is empty space defined by a positive shape.These outer limits are seen as shapes moving back and forth between major contours. Positive shape is the totality of the mass lying between its contours in three-dimensional work, the visible shape or outer limit of a form changes as the viewer's position is changed.Sometimes mass refers to a positive solid and volume refers to a negative, open space surrounded by material, as in a bowl or other vessel. Volumetric materials include: blocks of plaster, wood, or stone. MASS/VOLUME: Closed, independent, three-dimensional form - completely surrounded by space. Planar materials include: foam core, cardboard, sheet metal, plastic sheets, and plywood. LINE: The edge or outline of a form, the meeting of planes linear materials include: wire, wood, metal rod, string or any materials with a long, thin shape.

SPACE: Distance, area, volume physical space independent of what occupies it absolute space.
