Layering
ChatGPT’s explanation of “layering”: Layering refers to the contrast and relationship between different levels of an object or space in vision or perception. It is usually used to describe a sense of depth or three-dimensionality. This feeling can be expressed through elements such as color, light and shadow, shape and arrangement, allowing the viewer to feel the multi-dimensionality and richness of the object.
For example, in works of art, the painter's use of light, shadow and color contrast can enhance the layering of the picture, making the painting look more three-dimensional. In interior design, by placing furniture and decorative objects of different heights, you can also create a sense of hierarchy, making the space look more deep and dynamic.
The concept of layering originates from the fields of art and design, particularly in painting, photography, and architecture, which emphasizes the relationships and interactions between visual elements.
