D The directness and strength of symmetrical presentation is made richer by introducing an asymmetrical component.

D A dominant structure (in this case, an orthogonal axis division [solid lines]) underpins, and helps organize a complex set of conflicting diagonal axes (dotted lines). / Laurent Pinabel Canada B Diagonal axis-based structure tends to be extremely dynamic compared to orthogonal axis-based structure. / Timothy Samara United States 42 /43 The Logic of Organization: Symmetry, Asymmetry, and Other Strategies Compositional structure, defined by the directionality, interconnection, and positional relationships among axes and contours, may be organized first in consideration of two opposing kinds of logic: symmetry and asymmetry.

The spaces around the form become more active when the contour’s movement tracks inward and outward with greater relative distance from the central mass; this effect is augmented when the proportions of each of the contour’s sides is very different.
