Form – three-dimensional geometrical figure as opposed to a shape, which is two-dimensional, or flat. This does not require the production of a 3-dimensional object, the composition need only create the feel of existing in 3-dimensional space.

Forms are also recognisable shapes that provoke significant relationships in the minds of the viewer. It brings to mind something they can relate to, or envision existing in 3-dimensional space.

I’ve uploaded three logo, (none created by me), that I believe show three very different ways of creating with form.

Ruskin's 'The Grand Canal

“Sculpture is not the mere cutting of the form of anything in stone; it is the cutting of the effect of it.” – John Ruskin
