image.004.09.01.02 Form Bouquet1.jpg (49805 bytes)
In the above design.....A strong solid form is created with a mass of roses.  A dome of opening roses transfers a simple round form into a decadent mass.  By clustering the roses  closely, this designer has chosen to strengthen the over all form and over-accentuate it.

Form is the three dimensional shape of a floral design. Form includes the overall height, width and depth of a design.  When you view a floral design you see individual flowers and foliages of different shapes and sizes.  Form fills the overall space of what you view.  The placement of each flower within the arrangement creates the form.

Traditional forms include the basic round, symmetrical triangle, asymmetrical triangle, crescent, fan shape, and the Hogarth curve.  Contemporary forms include vertical, horizontal, oval, cascade and geometric.
