(1) line quality (2) smooth (3) rough

Explanation:

Texture can be the line quality of a design. With texture, lines and surfaces can be described as smooth and rough.

Texture means the physical feel of something (smooth, rough, fuzzy, slimy). Example of rough texture is Sandpaper which is very rough and linoleum has a very smooth texture.

Texture is simply the heart of design that determines the quality of the delicacy of the surfaces. It is also a determining factor in defining the material from which the present figures are made.

Rough or smooth, warm or cold, texture is the characteristic of surfaces that alludes to the senses.

When it comes to texture in design, we have to keep in mind that the very materials from which visual communications are made produce or have texture.

As an example, painting can be done on rough cloth such as jute or smooth as silk.

A rough texture can be changed to a smooth texture through painting, polishing.

Textures encourages two different senses:

(a) Sight (eyes)

(b) touch (skin)
