Within my studies, at Pratt Institute I have taken 3D representation every semester. This class follows the design principles from the book- “Elements of Design: Rowena Reed Kostellow and the Structure of Visual Relationships”. According to Rowena Reed Kostellow, Visual experience could be analyzed through seeing abstract relationships, and learning how to see and manipulate abstract forms can be applied to any design situation. 

Rowena Reed Kostellow spoke about how “the abstract relationships express the relation of the parts to the whole apart from any concrete or material embodiment. They reflect the direct visual experience of the thing, how forms and spaces and movements “speak” to one another.”
