esign is a visual expression that relies on selecting the idea, style, and materials to achieve a comprehensive artistic vision. Its elements, such as colors, lines, and spaces, interact based on design principles like rhythm and repetition. Design varies between two-dimensional (flat shapes) and three-dimensional (forms), while multi-level design serves as a bridge between them, requiring an understanding of the relationship between surface and space to achieve both real and illusionary depth.
This research focuses on developing multi-level design skills among art education students and generating multi-level design structures in light of color theory. The study follows a descriptive, analytical, and experimental methodology and was conducted on third-year students in the Decorative Designs Department at the Faculty of Art Education, Minia University.
The applied study, in light of color theories, demonstrated that students were able to comprehend the characteristics of multi-level designs and generate innovative design visions through:
Developing a deeper understanding of the aesthetic and structural values of multi-level design and applying them creatively.
Producing unique decorative designs that reflect creative thinking and meet academic requirements.
Enhancing multi-level design skills based on key findings analyzed from the research sample, including:
The structural foundation of design through the use of axes and shapes.
The visual organization of design through formal relationships and color theories.
Essential design and aesthetic principles such as rhythm, balance, and unity.
