Which example best shows the balance of beauty and utility in art?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A comfortable and beautifully designed chair
In applied art and design, beauty and utility work together rather than competing. A chair must support the body safely and comfortably, but its form, proportion, colour, and material can also make it visually pleasing and suitable for a particular space. Option C is correct because it combines a practical function with an attractive design. Option A lacks useful function, B has no developed design or purpose, and D fails to communicate clearly. The example shows that successful everyday design serves the user while also contributing visual quality and a meaningful experience.
