Geometrikus

Geometrikus is a Hungarian adjective meaning geometric or geometry-related. It is derived from geometria, the field of geometry, and shares roots with terms in many languages that describe shapes, spatial relations, and mathematical properties.

In mathematics and the sciences, geometrikus describes objects, figures, or models that are defined by geometric properties such as planar or spatial shape, symmetry, angles, and proportions. It can apply to curves and surfaces when their definition involves geometric constructs, and to methods based on geometric reasoning, such as geometric constructions or geometric modeling.

In art, design, and architecture, geometrikus denotes a style or approach that emphasizes geometric forms and regular polygons, straight lines, and repeating patterns. It is commonly used in Hungarian-language discourse about contemporary design, graphic art, and architecture to distinguish geometric aesthetics from organic or figurative styles.

Usage notes: In Hungarian, geometrikus contrasts with geometriai or geometriához kapcsolódó, and while both terms are used, geometrikus remains common in everyday language. Outside Hungarian, similar terms exist in other languages (for example geometric in English or geometrik in some languages), but geometrikus is specifically the Hungarian form.
