造型 (zào xíng) — (verb) to model; to shape; (noun) form, style, design, appearance, pose
Definition
造型 covers both the act of shaping (verb: to model, mold) and the resulting look (noun: form, style, pose). Unlike 形式 (abstract form vs content) or 形状 (pure shape), it implies a designed, aesthetic appearance — a phone's design, a model's pose.
