You can use principles of design to help compose a page by working with different elements to create a visually pleasing piece.
What are the principles of design (define each in your own words)?
Balance - Balance in design is similar to balance in physics.
Gradation - Gradation of size and direction produce linear perspective.
Harmony - Harmony in painting is the visually satisfying effect of combining similar, related elements.
Dominance - Dominance gives a painting interest, counteracting confusion and monotony.
Unity - Relating the design elements to the idea being expressed in a painting reinforces the principal of unity
For each of the 4 principles of C.R.A.P., find an example that utilizes the principle within the design. You should have 4 DIFFERENT sample designs. For each, discuss how the particular principle is used.
Contrast - This principle is used because the colors contrast one another well.
Repetition - This principle is used because Marilyn Monroe is repeated, which provides emphasis on her.
Alignment - This principle is used because the boxes are all lined up to each other.
Proximity - This principle is used because the shapes are at a set distance from one another to create a more organized look.
