The

purpose of this form is to document your learning as it takes place. What you should see is that learning is a process. No one can ever learn everything about even one
topic, and so your goal should be to update this form on a daily basis. As you work:

Include the information you have learned, with the main ideas summarized in your own words. If you cant summarize it in your own words, you havent learned it.
Include the dates so that you can monitor your learning process.
As you learn more, you should always have more questions. We should see continuous questions and answers as you seek to deepen your knowledge.

My Driving Question or SMART Goal is:

Things you learned

- Pinpoint holder is used in line and line-

mass arrangement in low bowl or shallow
container.
- Heavy metal pinpoint holder is easiest to
keep in place in the container.
- Oasis (floral foam) is used to keep the
water.
- Wet foam is used for fresh plant materials
and should not be reused.
- Dry foam is used for dried /silk floral
arrangement.
- To use the floral foam,
1. Soak it in water
2. Cut a piece of foam fit container
tightly
3. Insert stem to the bottom of the
foam.
3 types of floral arrangement
- 1.) Line arrangement : Japanese style,
emphasis on beauty of individuals blooms,
bold, dramatic, and focus on contrasting.
- 2.) Line-mass arrangement : Japanese
style, plenty of open space, using more
plants materials than line arrangement,
contrast of texture, color, and line.

- 3.) Mass arrangement : thick, look full,

emphasis on the whole colorful mass of
color and foliage.
- Design -> good composition
Relationship between feeling
security, naturalness, balance,
and simplicity.
Should be able to express ones
idea
Elements of design : color, light,
space, line, form, pattern
Principles of design : balance,
dominance, contrast, rhythm,
scale, proportion.
Element of Design
12-Hue Color Wheel -> used to determine
which color will work well with each other.
Warm Color : red, orange, yellow (have
more weight)
Cool Color : Blue, Green, Violet (peaceful)
Stage of Color
Primary Color = Red, Blue, Yellow -> create
all other color
Secondary Color = Orange, Green, Violet -
> result from combining primary color
 Things you know you know / Things you know that you dont know Things you didnt know that you didnt know

Things you learned

- Intermediate = Blue-green, Blue-violet,

Red violet -> result from combining
primary and secondary colors.
- Color Harmonies ->Related Color
Harmonies, Contrasting Color Harmonies
- Related Color Harmonies->
monochromatic (a hue its tone), and
analogues (color near each other)
- Contrast Color Harmonies-> direct
complements (color lying on the opposite
side of color wheel), split complement
(combination of 2 hues on either side of
the wheel), and triad (3 hues spread
equally on color wheel)
Elements of Design
- Light-> change flowers appearance,
enhance from depth; white light is good.
- Space-> area between individual plant
- Line-> create visual path and establish the
structural framework.
- Form-> 3 dimensional aspect of design. If
closes, mass and impact (more heavier),
but if open, spread.

Things you learned

- 3 Main Groups of Form which are linear

(line + line mass), rounded (line + line
mass) ,and filter (line + line mass; use
background filter and as space filter in
mass arrangement)
- Pattern-> designed formed by solids and
spaces.
- Texture-> about the quality of plant
materials.
- Textural contrast &variety can add
interest
- Size-> select flowers and leaves of
different size, and buds and smalls flowers
are used at the top and edges.
Attributes for Design
- Expression-> artistic & creative selection
of components, a mood, feeling, or idea.
**Should be able to communicate with
viewer!
- Harmony-> principle that produce feeling
of unity throughout the composition. To
obtain, all components must have
something in common either in size,
shape, texture, idea.

Things you learned

- Unity-> expresses congeniality,

cooperation, and spirit of working
together.
Principles of Design
- Balance-> the arrangement doesnt fall
over and gives feeling rest, stability, and
security
2 types of Balance : symmetrical ( one side
of arrangement is nearly a mirror image of
another ,and everything is out in both side
of the central axis -> same kind, form,
color),and asymmetrical (the plants are
different in each side of central axis,
however, they should maintain visual
weight, sense of balance)
- Visual Balance-> it depends on placement
of flower and foliage. Some side and color
used higher from the axis will make the
design heavy. Using larger and darker
plant material just above the container
creates visual stability.

Things you learned

- Focal Points-> attract attention, usually

placed low in arrangement near center
and composed of some massive material
such as large flower, bright flower -> have
more weight and stability.
- Dominance-> using dominant color, size,
shape, texture, strong color with sharp
contrast in form, size, color. *should have
focal point
- Rhythm-> refers to movement. Swing or
motion create dominant visual. It may be
obtained repetition of shapes, lines, hue,
direction + size, weight, texture, color +
line movement of flowers.
- Contrast-> placing opposite side or unlike
elements together so as to emphasize or
accentuate their differences ,but not too
much!
- Proportion-> important in the use of
color, texture, or form
- -> consider amount of plants
materials relation to container ->
hight+weight
- with regard to 1.) Line : proportion is
relative length
- 2.) Color : proportion is relative magnitude

- 3.) Shape : describe the number of round

forms in relation to spike forms.
- Scale-> Size relationship between
and or and container. Better
scale balance may be obtained if the
smaller flowers are grouped (thus giving
them more individually). Placing small and
large is good (create contrast)
How to arrange the flower?
1. Add larger, more dominant flowers
first
Tips: It is better to work with a single flower at a
time. We should work in a circle by placing flower
around outer edge of the container.
2. Layer flowers as we go -> using
different types of flowers
Tips: This circle of flowers should be inside the
first (try to create dome shape). One variety after
another, according to size and number of .

3. Use an odd layer in each layer-> of

each variety of e.g. 7 red roses in
outer circle, 5 white roses in the inner,
and 3 springs of babys breath inter
spread between them. (if you want
less uniform +non organic)
4. Pay attention to weight and height
Tips: Height of arrangement should be
times the height of container.
Balance**
Rotate arrangement to check.
5. Add any leave, berries, or other
greenery last -> helps separate the
blooms + giving air room. Interesting!
