Those creations are cool. Like playing paper dolls with people.

"boxy" makes me think of a fashion style (Channel?), a suit with a sort of short tight skirt, a jacket that could almost be made out of a packing box, torn apart and of a suitable cloth; all topped by a pillbox hat. very haute, very unfeminine.

I guess it definitely could give someone "an edge". ;)

Not a term I'm familiar with in terms of composition, either, MarioPierre, but I did a definition search on just the word "boxy" and came up with "restricted in tone" (which I don't think applies here) and "cramped" (which I suspect does apply). So I would guess the viewer felt "boxed in" by the composition and wanted more space - possibly just in one or two directions, possibly all around. Just my guess, though.

Ah, I obviously misinterpreted the reason for the question. Sorry. Still, maybe the definition of 'boxy' is germaine.

Boxy composition is not a term I'm familiar with.
Is it as in square frame? Or square composition within other aspect ratios? Left to interpretation?
