Shapes are essential elements of design, categorized into geometric, natural, and abstract forms. Geometric shapes, such as squares, circles, and triangles, are structured and often symmetrical. They communicate universal meanings and organize information effectively. Natural shapes, found in nature or created by humans, are often irregular and fluid, like leaves or ink blobs. Abstract shapes simplify or stylize natural forms, such as the iconic wheelchair symbol used for accessibility. This classification helps in creating impactful designs and conveying messages.
