Radial Design IntroductionSymmetrical and Asymmetrical Balance

Symmetrical Balance is achieved when 2 sides of
an axis are identical.In a radial design, symmetry is centered around the center of a circle: repeating, identical pie pieces.

Asymmetrical Balance is achieved when 2 sides of an axis hold equal “visual
weight” but are not identical.
In a radial design, asymmetrical balance is centered around the center of a circle: with variations in size, shape, color, pattern of pie pieces.

Radial symmetry can be used as a starting point that grows into a larger
idea.

Sometimes the thought process that starts a geometric radial pattern, as the thorns and nails in the lower left, changes radically as the concept for overall
design is realized.

Radial designs that play with the ideas of geometric symmetry,while breaking up the geometry with organic forms become increasingly intricate and complex design problems.

Your HOMEWORK was to come to class with 3 printed references of
related nature images.
![Page 8: 1.Radial Design Introduction](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c2d28c4a795986308b45af/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Today in class, use those references to construct 3 different
pie-piece designs.

Begin by sketching design.
Use combination of references.
Completely fill the pie-piece.
Drawing must touch both radius lines.

The pie pieces may vary in size.Make THREE different pie designs.
You may have more if you like.

You may also join pie pieces into a larger
segment.More photos referenced,present more design optionsANDAllow greater creativity.

Once you have at least 3 pie-shaped designs, the next step involves distilling the sketch into basic shapes—while still maintaining detail.This is basically an extension of the work we have done with positive and negative space.
