Select a textural surface from the provided list:
TEXTURAL ADJECTIVES
Utilizing only five descriptive adjectives,
describe your selected textural surface. Make
sure they are powerful words, you only get
five. Then give your list to your partner and
see if they can correctly identify your textual
surface, using only the adjectives on your list
as clues.
THE TACTILE SURFACE CHARACTERISTCS
(rough, jagged, soft, smooth), OR A VISUAL
REPRESENTATION OF A TACTILE SURFACE.
OF AN OBJECT.
TEXTURE
SENSE MEMORY OF TACTILE SENSATIONS
Smooth as Glass
Soft as Velvet
Fuzzy as a Bear
ASPECTS OF TEXTURE
STRUCTURAL TEXTURE VISUAL TEXTURE
Is the result of the elements
of a substance and the
method of its construction.
Fibers + Yarns + Weaving = Fabrics
Pulp and Pressure = Paper
Sand + Soda + Lime + Heat = Glass
Wood Veneers and Glue = Plywood
Varying these elements or
adding additional elements,
produces different textures.
The visual and mental
response to the structural
texture, or the impression.
By varying the type of
textures, the designer can
produce different concepts,
and emotional responses.
PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF TEXTURE
Textures can either support or alter
the physical perception of the effects
of light, color, line, and form.
PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF TEXTURE
Rough Textures =
soften edges & create
irregular outlines
break up and diffuse light
Enlarge shape
Soften or dull effects of
color
Smooth, Hard Textures =
Present form distinctly
Reflect light in sharp
highlights
Emphasize color
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF TEXTURE
Textures express moods or associations that
modify or support the psychological effects of
color, line, and form. (How does the texture
makes you feel about the environment/person)
Texture can suggest:
Occasion
Season
Economic Station
Time Period

Where is this? What do the textures tell you?
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF TEXTURE
Smooth, Crisp = Refined, hard, cheerful, perky, sophisticated
Smooth, Soft = Sensuous, relaxed, luxurious
Velvety Soft = Rich, luxurious
Fuzzy = Cuddly, primitive, untamed
Rough = Sporty, natural, uncouth, coarse, primitive, casual
Coarse = Uncouth, earthy, uncivilized
Medium (reg.) = neutralizing; businesslike, mature, stable, conservative

SEASCAPE
A special form of visual texture made up of
other elements (line, color, shape).
PATTERN
PATTERNS DERIVE FROM FOUR SOURCES:
NATURE = are pleasing and calming
MADE OBJECTS = strong associations to time,
place, gender & events
IMAGINATION = geometric & free form
SYMBOLS = based on a source that gives a
motif a specific and widely accepted meaning.
ARRANGEMENT OF PATTERN
All-Over
Panel
Border
Four-Way One-Way
Two-Way
PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
1. accents the area in
which it is used
2. complements simple structural design
3. adds visual interest
4. attracts attention away from silhouette, (distracts eye from less pleasing contours)
5. larger patterns enlarge, smaller patterns not necessarily reduce
PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
6. sharply outlined motifs are more emphatic,
dramatic and enlarging than fuzzy edged motifs
PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
7. patterns that create optical illusion quickly
become distracting and visually tiring.
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
1. closely spaced motifs may create a crowded,
pressured feeling. Widely spaced motifs may
create a spotty impression
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
2. Flattened motifs (those without shading or
dimension) = youth, simplicity, casualness, or
humor.
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
3. Plant, floral, and flowing motifs = feminine
Animal and geometric motifs = masculine
PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PATTERN
4. Large motifs = dynamic & bold
Small motifs = dainty
TO REMEMBER ABOUT TEXTURE
When planning textures or patterns for the
stage, take into consideration the distance of
audience to stage. More delicate and detailed
textures tend to disappear over long distances.
The effects of visual mixing may eliminate
textures, but enhance color and 3-D effects.
