Types of design in various Arts

Types of design are classified in: visual,auditory.audiovisual.

• Visual - a)visual static surface design(2D)(not moving).Main components are:lines,colors,texture.Can be presented on a flat,curves,surface.Here are included:

1. Strip design: long and narrow, extended,lengthwise:.Developed by addition or by division of the units as heraldic strip.Conventional types:wave,egg,dart.A flat design in 3D give illusions of solidity, depth.
2. Bounded area design: This is limited within 2 given 2D area and it usually related internally  to the size and shape of the area marked off. Types:flat(paintings),3D(sculptural reliefs).
3. Allover design: Is unbound in 2D with a tendency to indefinite repetition in 2D and 4 directions.A common feature is to arrange the unite on 2 coordinate intersecting systems of lines and not doing a single main axisis as usual in strip designs(spot,strip)

     -b)visual static solid design  This type is 3D presented ,it has considerable extent in thickness or depth as well as in length and breadth.

1. Exterior design; as in architecture when viewed from outside
2. Interior design: surrounding or partly surrounding the observer as when is inside a building
3. Combination of two: As in the connection between exterior and interior designs in the cathedral
4. Intermediate; Between surface and solid design is sculptural relief which varies as to the amount of 3D development.

    -c) visual mobile temporally developed design

1. Mobile surface design:present thematic development in time as well as change and motion sequence 2D
2. Mobile solid design:present solid figures in 3D

• Auditory- is presented in more or less determinate temporal sequence

1. Musical design: is based on thematic development of rhythm,timber using instrument ,human voices
2. Word sound design: is presented when literature is spoken thus it resemble to music
3. Verbal musial design: a combination of musical and word-sound

• Audiovisual - involves some temporal change because of the evanescence of sound

1. Audiovisual surface design: mobile visual patterns combined with music,word sound or both.
2. Audiovisual solid design: the combinationof mobile solid patterns with auditory ones.
