Height Difference of Objects: At Least Double

A set of warm-toned minimalist furnishings with striking height contrast. The tallest object is more than twice the height of the shortest: a dried branch in a slender ceramic vase reaches sixty centimeters, next to which is a fifteen-centimeter-tall unglazed ceramic bowl; or a tall terracotta lamp base next to a stack of books laid flat. Because the height difference is large enough, even with only two or three items, the composition has clear layers and rhythm. Avoid: having all objects be similar in height, using matching sets of similarly sized vessels, placing tall objects in corners where they are obscured, making height variations too regular like steps.

一組高度對比明顯的暖調極簡陳設。最高的物件是最矮的兩倍以上:一枝插在細長陶瓶裡的乾燥枝條高達六十公分,旁邊是一個十五公分高的粗坯陶碗;或是一盞高的陶土燈座旁放著一疊平放的書。因為高度差夠大,即使只有兩三件,構圖也有清楚的層次與節奏。避免:讓所有物件的高度接近、使用尺寸相仿的成套器皿、把高的物件放在角落被遮住、讓高度的變化過於規律像階梯。
