untextured

Lacking surface variation

Untextured describes something lacking texture—smooth, flat, or without surface variation.

In design and graphics, untextured surfaces have no pattern or relief: The untextured walls gave the room a sterile feel.

In 3D modeling and gaming, an untextured object hasn't yet received its surface detail, appearing as a solid color or placeholder.
