Size and Scale
Large elements grab attention first and establish dominance. Use varying sizes to signal importance and create focal points.
Color and Contrast
High-contrast elements stand out and can be used to draw attention or create depth. Colors can evoke emotions and guide the viewer's eye.
Typography
Typography can create a mood and indicate hierarchy. Bold, large, or unique fonts capture attention while consistent text styles maintain order.
Spacing and Grouping
Spaces between elements (white space) help organize information and reduce clutter. Grouping related items assists in categorization and comprehension.
Alignment and Grids
Alignment creates a neat, orderly layout, aiding readability. Grids provide a framework to organize content and maintain consistency.
Texture and Patterns
Textures and patterns add depth and interest. They can be used subtly to add sophistication or boldly to create a strong visual statement.
Imagery
Images can convey messages quickly and evoke emotions. High-quality and relevant images support the content message and capture attention.
Scale and Proportion
Proportionate elements maintain balance within the layout. Disproportion can be used to create focus and add interest to the composition.
Hierarchy of Information
Organizing information by its importance guides the viewer through the content. Emphasize key messages to direct attention.
Repetition and Consistency
Repetition strengthens the composition and creates unity. Consistent use of style elements like colors, shapes, and fonts adds to visuals' coherence.
Lines and Borders
Lines can direct the eyes, delineate sections, and provide structure. Borders define edges and contain elements, contributing to organization.
Motion and Animation
Animations grab attention and add a dynamic element to the design. Use motion sensibly to emphasize points without overwhelming the viewer.
