PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN AND APPLICATION

Lesson 6:Principles of Design – Proportion, Harmony and Emphasis

How to emphasize

There are several ways by which one may create emphasis or attract attention and the most important of these are:

1. By the use of contrast of hue, value or intensity.
   
   
2. By having sufficient background space around objects.
   
   
3. By contrast of lines, spaces or sizes.
   

Sometime all above can be used in one single design.
