Definition
质感 primarily refers to the tactile quality or texture of a material, surface, or object — how something feels to the touch. It also extends to visual arts, describing the quality that makes an image or work appear real, vivid, or tangible (similar to 'realism' in English). This is an abstract noun, often modified by adjectives (比如 很强的质感、粗糙的质感).
