Elements of Design: Texture

Element of Design: Texture

Visual Texture: appearance of a surface
~the floor
~the chandelier 
~the basket in the corner
~the mirror on the wall
Tactile Texture: feel of a surface
~the blanket .. soft and furry
~pillows .. soft
~the dresser .. smooth 
~the plant .. rough and smooth on the leaves
Audible Texture: the sound a surface makes when rubbed
~the floor .. creeks 
~the mirror spikes .. it would make a ringing sound after dragging the finger on it
~the plant .. rustling sound if someone would to brush against it
~the window .. which would make a screeching sound

The overall feeling of the room because of the textures creates a more comfortable space to be in. When you know about the textures, it makes you want to be in there. 
When we learned about textures in Interior Design, it was interesting to learn about the different types of texture.
