Design Principles 2017 August
The document outlines the key elements and principles of design including color, value, line, shape, texture, space, form, unity, balance, hierarchy, scale, emphasis, and similarity and contrast. It provides definitions and examples for each element and principle. The elements are the basic visual components such as color and line, while the principles describe how elements are arranged and organized, including concepts like proximity, repetition, and emphasis. Mastering both the elements and principles is necessary for effective visual design.
