Graphic designer Rikard Rodin has come up with a comprehensive article on how lines can be used in designs to succinctly convey various types of mood through their universally recognized meanings.
He termed these as “Mood Lines”, and included a diagram that’s a compilation of 48 of them, as shown above. Rodin first came across this visual in John Ormsbee Simonds’ Landscape Architecture.
Rodin also showed how these ‘Mood Lines’ have been used across a wide range of designs—movie posters, vehicles and sculptures count as some of the examples highlighted.
If you need the diagram above, head on over to his website to download the PDF.
