Shapes
Everything around us is made of shapes, from the smallest type of micro-organisms to the biggest structure you will ever see in your life. They are the faces of the 3D solids we see around us, either being there in its own, or being a mix between two or more polygons. Shapes resemble different things and delivers different thoughts when looking or passing by them through the day. Putting these shapes or joining the to form volumes gives as a huge number of volume, they could be in the form of
Cubes Pyramids Cylinders Rectangular prisms Cones Spheres
One of the solid structures that fascinated architects and artists throughout ages is the “Platonic Solids”. Till now many breath-taking huge structures are inspired by these polyhedrons. It is also found in nature in micro-organisms, crystals, molecules and many other forms. Even these solids are made of 2D shapes, especially 3 shapes: the triangle, the square, and pentagon polygons. These 3 simple shapes give those solids a unique symmetry impossible to find in any other polyhedron.
Every shape has a concept behind it that affects the eye and brain when subjected to it, and imprints this concept on 3D solids made from this shape. This is why scientists spend much time studying shapes to be able to deliver a certain and needed thought to people using them.
Simplest type of shape we can consider is the line, a shape with length that can be extended to infinity and negligible width reaching almost zero. Although the line could seem to be so simple, but it affects the human eye and can send different thoughts to the human psyche.
A simple line gives a direction to follow. 1 pair of parallel lines directs the face into a certain region between
