A few things around my room that have the elements are.

I have this one i black. But it is very nice to have around. And it have many hard lines. There are no curved lines on this peice of furnature. it has a very smooth texture. And for the amount of space it takes up (which is very little) it offers a lot of storage.


While this isnt practical. Its is a nice monitor. Also it follows a few of the elements we talked about. It has hard lines. curved lines. and other things. such as a smooth texture.

This doesn't have very hard lines. But it has a lot of curved lines. And because of this and the small size it fits into a persons hand very nicely. And it also fits perfectly into the little pocket that jeans have.


This has two things in it. First the Ps3 its self has a very nice design. It has plenty of curved lines. which add a nice style to it. but it also has a few sraight lines to it. which help to be a counter balance to the curved line design.

And the controler Is well designed. It is very curved. And it is a good size for the average persons hands. The smooths texture helps to cut down on sweat. And the circular thumb pegs have slightly rougher texture. which adds nice grip. there are other design elements in it as well as lines. such as color. Most of them come in black. which i feel is a good color for the conroller.
