The CSS Box Model consists of 5 parts:

1) Content – The actual content of the element. It can be anything, such as text, images, videos, etc.

2) Border – A line around the element, and still inside of the element.

3) Padding – Invisible space around the content, and also inside of the element.

4) Margin – Space OUTSIDE of the element, and between other elements.

5) Fill Area – Area that gets filled with background color or background image. Inside the element.

The calculation of the final element width and height:

Final element width = left border + left padding + width + right padding + right border.

Final element height = top border + top padding + height + bottom padding + bottom border.
