Harmony • Refers to the use of lines, shapes, colors, textures and patterns with enough variety to avoid boredom, but not so much variety as to create conflict. • VARIETY (Things that are different) – when the design has differences to create interest • UNITY (Things that are alike)– a sense of completeness, when nothing is missing, left out or undone • Both can be overdone, the key is to balance both to achieve harmony
How is harmony achieved? • Unity: repetition of red and black • Variety: texture below the skirt, flower above
How is harmony achieved? • Unity – gray throughout, fitted, repeating lines • Variety – bows add interest, slit in front
How is harmony achieved • Unity: neutral colors, vertical lines, brown repeated in shoes • Variety: belt-horizontal line
