Is there a term for when a product’s natural shape matches the shape of the design of the product?
This is a hard question to phrase…I am trying to describe when something is designed/styled in a way that the natural shape of the object is used in the design. Like the artist doesn’t have to draw or sculpt or make the object an unnatural shape to fit the form?
For example, imagine a plate that has a Death Star pattern on it. Plates are usually round and the Death Star is round, so neither the form of the plate or design had to change for the piece.
Or, if you imagine dryer lint balls, they are usually in the shape of a ball, so putting a Soot Sprite pattern on one works in style and form for both the Soot Sprite and the dryer lint ball.
The leaf plate in the picture is a counter example. Plates are usually not shaped like leaves so it does not fit the concept I am grasping at.
Is there a name or a term for this type of product/art design?
