Less is more. We mostly focus on positive space in the world but what about
the negative space. You need both to feel balanced. Lets start a dialog
about this empty void that is a requirement to 2D and 3D design.

Negative Space, also called White Space, is the space around and between
objects in a two dimensional or three dimensional design. Using negative
space effectively is an art in itself, and is often the lynch pin that
gives power to a good design. Is the spacing too cramped or too loose, or
does it have that certain presence of "just right"? Is the shape it creates
a strong design element in itself?

Negative Space is considered in everything from the leading in type, to
photography, graphic design, painting and sculpture, to the design of
products, interiors, and public parks. In this discussion we will work to
understand how to use this important tool to create power in our designs.

Here are a couple of links for anyone who would like to read up on the
topic in advance of our discussion:
