Which term refers to the shape or structure of the design?

• A. Texture
• B. Space
• C. Depth
• D. Form

Answer: (D)

Form describes the shape or structure of a floral design—the overall silhouette and the architectural arrangement that give the design its recognizable figure. This shape is what you notice first, whether the design reads as round, linear, cascading, or asymmetrical, and it sets the visual footprint of the piece. Texture refers to the surface quality you see or feel on petals and leaves, not the overall silhouette. Space is about the areas around and between the flowers and foliage, shaping how the design sits in its environment. Depth covers the sense of distance and multi-layered arrangement from front to back. So the shape and structure—the backbone of the design—are described by form.
