DSDN 142: Sequence 3: Final Choices

Aaaand we're onto the third sequence. Because of the shape of my original forms components, the arcs always feature in the transformations, just because they are so versatile. I like this shape because the arc transformation is more subtle than the previous sequences, however, despite the more subtle changes, the arcs are quite obviously the features of this sequence.

In this sequence, the arcs don't get smaller, but rather get narrower and increasingly elliptical. Eventually they just become straight lines.
In the transitory period though, they go through some interesting forms.
Meanwhile, the chevrons team up with the central x to make ever increasing squares, and the outer diagonals increase their stroke weight to the point where they are far wider than they are long.

These ones really work well with regards to composition, I find.


SEQUENCE 3 PARAMETERS:

ARC: WIDTH (LEFT AND RIGHT) AND HEIGHT (TOP AND BOTTOM) OFFSETS TOWARDS THE CENTRE + 5

OUTER DIAGONALS: STROKE WEIGHT OFFSETS IN EITHER DIRECTION + 2

CHEVRONS: LENGTH AND DISTANCE OFFSET AWAY FROM THE CENTRE + 5

CENTRAL X: LENGTH OFFSETS +5
