Graphic Design: Basic Elements and Principles
The following is a perceptual study of examples demonstrating (combinations of) primary and secondary design elements and principles. • Element(s): Line; Shape; Size/Scale • Principle(s): Alignment; Repetition; Proximity; Balance/(A)symmetry 1) Primary - Element / Principal: Line / Proximity Secondary - Elements(s) / Principle(s): Shape, Size/Scale / Alignment, Repetition, (A)symmetry 2) Primary - Element / Principal: Line / Repetition Secondary - Elements(s) / Principle(s): Shape, Size / Alignment, Proximity, Asymmetry 3) Primary - Element / Principal: Shape / Repetition Secondary - Elements(s) / Principle(s): Size/Scale / Proximity, Asymmetry 4) Primary - Element / Principal: Shape / Repetition Secondary - Elements(s) / Principle(s): / Alignment, Proximity, Balance/symmetry 5) Primary - Element / Principal: Shape / Alignment Secondary - Elements(s) / Principle(s): Size / Proximity, Balance/symmetry 6) Primary - Element / Principal: Shape / Repetitio
