Symmetry is the exact
correspondence in size,
shape and position of the
parts of a whole.
AXIAL SYMMETRY: when equal elements of a figure are
equidistant from a line called "axis of symmetry“.
Whenever a figure can be
divided, forming with it two
equal parts, we say that it is
a symmetrical figure.
RADIAL SYMMETRY: when each point of a figure
corresponds to another of the same figure, being in the
same straight line, opposite and equal distance from
another point called the "center of symmetry".
GEOMETRIC SYMMETRY: It is characterized by the accuracy
of the path.
To draw shapes with geometric symmetry, we will use the
square, triangle, ruler and compass.

AXIAL LAYOUT FIGURES
Draw the axis of
symmetry and the
perpendicular lines to
the axis.
AXIAL LAYOUT FIGURES
Symmetrical dots are
marked on the
perpendicular;
what you mark on one
side of the axis, you also
have to mark on the
other (using your
compass).
AXIAL LAYOUT FIGURES
Now we just need to
connect the dots.

FIGURES
Draw a circle and its
diameter
Divide the circumference into six equal parts
Connect the points A, E, F. drawing an equilateral triangle
Connect the BCD points drawing another equilateral triangle.
You already have a figure of radial symmetry, now you need
to create more shapes to have a more attractive result.
Connect the points A B C D E F drawing a hexagon.
Join ALTERNATELY
the points of the
small hexagon
drawing another
STAR polygon.
Prick on the small STAR polygon edges and draw arcs at
the sides of the big hexagon.
You can keep pricking on
the small hex points or
joining other points, but
always respecting the
radial symmetry
APPARENT SYMMETRY:
Which fulfill the general rules of
symmetry, varies slightly the
disposition of their points from
the axis or center of symmetry.

EXPRESSIVE CAPACITY OF SYMMETRY
A composition is symmetrical when the visual weight of the
elements is distributed equivalently in respect to one of the
principal axes vertical or horizontal. Also there is a
symmetry regarding a diagonal axis. Usually the symmetry
implies statist.
Artistic expression employs both: the apparent and
the geometric symmetry....

When symmetry is chosen as a way of expression, it is
for the purpose of producing an effect of visual order
and stability.
M.C. ESCHER - 1948
VISUAL MASS BALANCE
Symmetry is simply a case of equilibrium. We can
balance a composition using the symmetry
apparent compensating of the "visual mass."

Fra Angelico 1430 -32
The characters do not
fulfill the axial
symmetry, but the
space is divided into
two equal parts, taking
up similar space,
without encroaching
on each other.
VISUAL MASS BALANCE
Symmetry
allows
ordering and
decorating a
space whose
point of
interest is in
the center.
