What is Level Design?

As a project work in advanced CAD, I'm going to have a lesson and talk
about Level Design for my classmates and I thought it would be nice if
I could explain what Level Design is about with one simple sentence.
However I dont know how to put it, so I pass the question to you guys.

What is Level Design, explained in one simple and cool sentence?

Pure ass kickery.

Creating worlds.

Unfortunately, no one can be told what Level Design really is. You
have to see it for yourself. You take the blue pill, the story ends,
you wake up in your bed and believe levels grow like flowers. You take
the red pill, you stay in wonderland, and we'll show you how deep this
rabbit hole goes.
