Contrast Contrast helps us to differentiate items on a page. There is a variety of ways to provide contrast… Monday Night Concert Series Bill Zehfuss, trombone & Kathy Palmer, piano Feb. 27 at 8 p.m. Recital Hall, Simons Center for the Arts, 54 St. Philip Street $5 at the door (843)953.5927 Robert Ivey Ballet The Velveteen Rabbit March 2 – 4 at 9 a.m. Sottile Theatre, 44 George Street $8 Reservations (843) 556.1343

More Contrast Notice how the contrast in font sizing bring attention to the main words.

More Contrast An example of contrast, using various typefaces and colors. The idea behind contrast is to avoid elements on the page that are merely similar. If the elements [...] are not the same, then make them very different. (from Robin Williams, Non-designers Handbook)

JohnathanMesserman More Contrast Contrast is the most popular design principle. Here are two more examples, using various aspects of fonts. JohnathanMesserman

Alignment Alignment is where you place things on the page in relation to other things. Basically, everything should strategically-placed on the page. Nothing should be placed arbitrary on a page.

More Alignment A full page flyer demonstrating two basic alignments… What other principles do you see demonstrated? How? How would you improve it? (Note: This is a design that I found in a textbook.)

Repetition Repeating visual elements of the design throughout the piece helps develop its organization and strengthens its unity. For example, a footer with repeated elements on each page helps to create a sense of unity.

Proximity Placing related close together. Grouping items together help them to be seen as one visual unit, which improves the availability of information.

More Proximity Introduction Proximity between headers and content … The new computer system consists of 92 Pentium 4’s, each running at 1 GHz, except for the file server, which is a Pentium computer, running at 800 MHz. All of the end-user machines have a 1.44-Mb 3½ floppy disk, a DVD, and a 40 GB hard disk. The file server is equipped with a 200 GB hard disk and a tape-drive backup system. Connected to the file server are three Hewlett-Packard Laser printers and a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet flatbed OCR scanner. Description of the Software The operating system for our computers is Windows 2000. The network operating system uses Novell Netware. The file server hard disk is installed with Corel WordPerfect, Lotus 1‑2‑3, and Paradox, which are accessible to all computers on the network, and installed with other specialty software used by individual lawyers, clerks, and secretaries.

All C.R.A.P. Can you identify each principle in this flyer? - Contrast - Repetition - Alignment - Proximity
