Asymmetry
Radial
Is symmetry in several directions. Visual elements are arranged around a central point in the composition, like the spokes on a wagon wheel.
Symmetry
Approximate symmetry
Asymmetry
Radial
Is informal and seems less organized than symmetry. The two halves of a balanced asymmetric artwork do not look the same but have similar visual weights.

A fun way to create emphasis in a composition is to have one element stand-out because it is so different – a round object among angular shapes, a line of people with one facing the wrong way.
