3, Vertical: a vertical structural member as a post or stake

4, Environmental: concerned with the ecological effects of altering the environment

5, Corporate: done by or characteristic of individuals acting together

Adjective List:

Colour: 

1, Primary: coil forming the part of an electrical circuit such that changing current in it induces a current in a neighboring circuit

2, Multicoloured: having sections or patches colored differently and usually brightly

3, Complementary: acting as or providing a complement (something that completes the whole)

4, Dark: devoid of or deficient in light or brightness; shadowed or black

Principles and Elements of Design List:

Principles:

1, Stability: the quality of being enduring and free from change or variation

2, Dynamics: the branch of mechanics concerned with the forces that cause motions of bodies

3,  Rhythm:  may be generally defined as a "movement marked by the regulated succession of strong and weak elements, or of opposite or different conditions.

4, Scale: an object defined on a set of points (for example real numbers) and used for a wide variety of applications

2, Clour:  it is the visual perceptual property corresponding in humans to the categories called red, green, blue and others. Color derives from the spectrum of light (distribution of light power versus wavelength) interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the light receptors. Color categories and physical specifications of color are also associated with objects, materials, light sources, etc., based on their physical properties such as light absorption, reflection, or emission spectra.

3, Texture: in the visual arts, texture is the perceived surface quality of a work of art. It is an element of two-dimensional and three-dimensional design and is distinguished by its perceived visual and physical properties. Use of texture, along with other elements of design, can convey a variety of messages and emotions.
