Design Element- Shape

SHAPE
An object that uses its edges to give the appearance of a 2 dimensional (flat) shape such as a triangle or square. Shapes can be positive or negative (the object or the area surrounding the object)

Examples of the use of shape/form in visual communication:
Anthony Bowran & Malcolm Gaskin, Lego, Tbwa, London, 1976-1978.
Andreas Gursky, James Bond Island-III, 2007.
