Majestic Suspension

Suspended design/art elements can occupy an environment without imposing itself on it.

Through proper execution of suspended elements, one can create a sense of softness and lightness, giving the impression that each element is floating in space!

The spaces between the design elements are as important as the elements themselves. It should be composed in such a way that gives illusion of movements rather than just the visual shape of elements.
