Intricate is a term used to describe something that is complex and detailed and can refer to anything from a pattern or design, to a plan or system. Intricate things often require careful thought and attention in order to be understood or created. For example, intricate designs may involve multiple colors and shapes that must be carefully arranged in order for the overall effect to be pleasing. Similarly, an intricate plan may involve many steps that must all be followed in order for it to work properly. Intricacy can also refer to the level of detail involved in something; an intricate painting may have many small details that add up together for a larger picture, while an intricate story might contain many characters with their own unique motivations and goals.
