blobbiness

Lacking defined edges

Blobbiness is the quality of being blob-like—shapeless, amorphous, or lacking defined edges.

The word describes things that bulge, spread, or refuse to hold a crisp form: The blobbiness of the dough meant it needed more flour.

It can characterize visual design, physical texture, or anything that seems soft and undefined where structure might be expected.
