1. Harmony

2. Refers to the use of lines, shapes, colors, textures and patterns with enough variety to avoid boredom, but not so much variety as to create conflict. VARIETY (Things that are different) – when the design has differences to create interest UNITY (Things that are alike)– a sense of completeness, when nothing is missing, left out or undone Both can be overdone, the key is to balance both to achieve harmony

3. How is harmony achieved? Unity: repetition of red and black Variety: texture below the skirt, flower above

4. How is harmony achieved? Unity – gray throughout, fitted, repeating lines Variety – bows add interest, slit in front
