Abstract design refers to a design that is not representational of any specific object or idea. Instead, it focuses on the use of various shapes, lines, and colors to create something that is unique and visually appealing. Synonyms for abstract design include non-objective, non-representational, geometric, and minimalist design. Non-objective design emphasizes the shape, line, and color elements to create an art piece without any reference to a physical object. Non-representational design is similarly focused on the aesthetic qualities over representationalism. Geometric design is a type of abstract design that uses geometric shapes to create patterns and designs, while minimalist design emphasizes simplicity and the use of negative space.
