Asymmetrical Balance

Have you ever seen a room design that included objects of differing sizes, shapes, and colors, yet it all worked together? This is an example of asymmetrical balance which is achieved by the careful juxtaposition of different elements. For example, a large area of dull color can be balanced out by a much smaller area of bright color. And a small, very complex shape can be balanced by a large, simple shape.
