Content: an environment that suggests humility as off-center empathy; an eccentric void of overlapping spaces

Mass: size of form

Density: Light Tone: least dense; Dark Tone: most dense

Interior Space: Angular Forms: least amount of interior void; Parallel Forms: intermediate amount of interior void; Curved Forms: most amount of interior void

Sculpting: Faceting: angled form where the size of the void is related to the mass and the density of the

Carving: parallel forms generate the least number of forms, angular forms generate an intermediate form; number of forms, curvilinear generate the most number of forms

Molding: a matrix that is composed of rectilinear volumes that surrounds forms and voids
