Flashcards
Line
Line
A line is a connection between two points, extending in one dimension, such as a straight line, a dotted line, or a curved line.
Color
Color
Color is a visual element that adds vibrancy and meaning to a design. It can be used for mood, contrast, and to attract attention.
Shape
Shape
Shapes are two-dimensional areas defined by lines or colors. Geometric shapes, like circles and squares, follow rules, while organic shapes, like leaves and flowers, are more free-flowing.

Study Notes
Elements of Design
- There are six elements of design
- Line: A connection between two dots. Has one dimension (straight, curved, dotted)
- Color: A fundamental design element
- Shape: A two-dimensional area defined by a line or color. Two types - geometric (circle, etc.) and organic (leaves, flowers, etc.).
- Form (Solids): Three-dimensional objects, usually represented using shading and shadows.
- Texture: Roughness or smoothness, created using grain patterns
- Space: Positive and negative areas (objects and backgrounds)
Principles of Design
- Balance: Even distribution of visual weight in a design.
- Symmetrical: Two equal halves (left = right, top = bottom)
- Asymmetrical: Uneven visual weight, no two equal halves
- Radial: Elements radiate outward from a central point.
- Rhythm: Repetition creating patterns in design.
- Regular: Repeating the same element
- Random: Randomly repeating elements
- Alternating: Alternating elements in a pattern
- Progressive: A growth or progression in size, perhaps increasing or decreasing order
- Unity and Variety: Combining elements for harmony while maintaining differences.
- Contrast: Differences (shape, color, scale) in layout
- Emphasis/Focus: Highlighting an element
- Proportion: Relative size and dimensions of elements
- Movement: Visual paths (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) create a sense of movement (static = no movement, dynamic = movement)
