OUGD603 - Brief 05 - Monometri6 - Symbolism Research


Rectangle Representation.

Squares and 
rectangles are stable. They're familiar and trusted shapes and suggest honesty. They have right angles and represent order, mathematics, rationality, and formality. They are seen as earthbound. Rectangles are the most common geometric shape encountered

Squares Representation

It can represent the cosmic elements of the sun, moon, stars, and planets. It can symbolize the four main elements-air, earth, fire, and water. The square is a stable symbol. It is a symbol that people will see as familiar.

Circle Representation.

Circle. The circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning. It represents the notions of totality, wholeness, original perfection, the Self, the infinite, 
eternity, timelessness, all cyclic movement, God ('God is a circle whose centre is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere


Looking into a variety of symbols has allowed me to gain knowledge of what each shape means, by taking its meaning and adjusting it / Merging it with something in which I've designed to capture my own self expression thought
