Detailed explanation-1: -3 Physical Balance Often called mechanical balance, because it refers to the idea that the arrangement is mechanically sound and is able to stand on its own.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mechanical balance-arrangement will not topple over, flowers are placed properly so there is an equal amount of weight on both sides of the central axis. Symmetrical balance-equal visual weight on each side of the central axis. Asymmetrical balance-equal visual weight, but each side has different plant material.

Detailed explanation-3: -symmetrical balance-known as formal balance, flowers are repeated on opposite sides of the floral arrangement. Using an imaginary central axis, one side of the arrangement is the mirror image of the other. Asymmetrical balance-known as informal balance.

Detailed explanation-4: -We unconsciously assume the center of a picture corresponds to a fulcrum. A heavy weight on one side can be balanced by a lighter weight on the other side if the lighter weight is located at a greater distance from the fulcrum. Unlike physical balance, visual balance can be created through absence as well as presence.
