Physical Appearance
Describes faces or objects with clear lines and structure, often implying thinness or edginess.

The sculpture had an angular form that caught the light.
Not Soft or Curvy
Indicates sharp lines instead of smooth curves, giving a geometric or harsher visual impression.

She preferred angular furniture to the soft curves of traditional designs.

It's a demonstration of something in physics that we call the law of conservation of angular momentum, which basically says that if you set something spinning about a fixed axis, that it will keep spinning unless you do something to stop it. And that's really fundamental in how the universe works. And it's not just eggs that it applies to,

Carmen Dell'Orefice
American Model
I was the Kate Moss of my day, atypical of what the public wanted, which was Brigitte Bardot. I was always tall, skinny and angular. But now, society has bought 55 years of my marketing 'Carmen,' and I'm considered beautiful. I hope that empowers older women.

Anita Baker
American Musician
Oh my goodness, they are rocking so many variations of my high-top fade. I mean, Rihanna has taken it to a very angular 21st Century thing. Miss Fantasia has it in a very seductive, you know, up-flip, and it's just lovely, right? Oh, I think it's wonderful.

Quote examples
Imogen Poots
English Actress
I find the aristocratic parts of London so unattractive and angular; the architecture is so white and gated. But in New York, it's different - even uptown it's really grand, and there's no real segregation there. It's all mixed up.

Vijay Kumar
Indian Scientist
If you want a robot to maneuver aggressively, it has to be small. As you scale things down, the 'moment of inertia' - the resistance to angular motion - drops dramatically.

D. A. Carson
Canadian Clergyman
The Gospel itself is angular. It always has been. It always conflicts. It always challenges every generation. It challenges different generations in different ways.

I have a very angular face, so my makeup routine is focused around softening my features, and I've finally learned how to contour to my advantage.
