Which term describes a gradual change in size or color?
Correct Answer:
Gradation
Explanation:
Gradation describes a gradual change in size or color. In floral design, this principle creates a smooth progression that guides the eye through the arrangement, adding depth and a sense of movement. For example, you might stage blooms so that sizes increase or decrease gradually from the focal area, or transition colors from light to dark along a line to achieve a cohesive flow. This concept stands apart from open form (space and airiness), radial balance (symmetry around a center), and visual weight (how much an element attracts attention), because gradation specifically emphasizes the stepwise progression of size or color to unify the design.
