Which of the following is NOT considered an element of design?

Color
Texture
Size
Line

The correct answer is: Size

Size is considered a principle of design rather than an element. The elements of design typically include color, texture, line, shape, form, space, and value. These elements are fundamental components that combine to create visual compositions. They help convey meanings and influence the overall look and feel of a design. Color refers to the hue or tint that can evoke emotions and set a mood, while texture pertains to the surface quality of materials in a design, affecting how they are perceived tactically and visually. Line is a basic element that defines shapes and forms and can lead the viewer's eye through a composition. Size, while important in discussing the scale of an object within a design, is more about how these elements are arranged or perceived rather than being an elemental component itself.
