As a guide, no more than 5 groupings Proximity Grouping

Which uses proximity? Proximity Grouping

White space “Empty” space on a page or poster not covered by print or graphic matter. White space is used deliberately, and serves a purpose, e.g. to draw attention to facts white space Proximity White space Proximity White space

If you want a big effect, use a lot of space. The more isolated an object is, the more pull power it has on your eyes.

Examples Proximity

Alignment LEFT, CENTRE, RIGHT & JUSTIFY Golden rule of alignment Use one alignment only and stick to it (using more than one alignment can look messy)

CHANGING CENTRE TO LEFT Centre alignedLeft aligned Alignment CENTRE, LEFT

USING TOO MANY ALIGNMENTS Too many alignments used (left, right and centred) Alignment LEFT, CENTRE, RIGHT & JUSTIFY

Alignment USING ONLY ONE (CENTRE) Now only centred (very formal alignment) Alignment CENTRE

Alignment USING ONLY ONE (RIGHT) Now right aligned (asymmetrical, modern feel) Alignment RIGHT

Alignment RIGHT WITH REVERSE TYPE Text reversed (light on dark) – more interest generated Alignment RIGHT with reverse text

Alignment LEFT Left aligned (one alignment only) Alignment LEFT

Alignment LEFT Left aligned (except for the logo) Alignment CENTRE

Alignment RIGHT Right aligned (one alignment only) Alignment RIGHT

Alignment CENTRE Centre aligned (very formal and traditional)

Contrast Our eyes/brain likes contrasts. Adding contrast within a page helps to create structure and makes it easier to find information
