What does it take to create a good design?
People must understand the elements and principles of design to create good graphic design.
What is the difference between elements and principles?
Elements are components that are isolated and things we add to actual designs. Principles tell us how to organize those elements on a page or screen.
Name the six (6) elements of design. Line, shape/form, space, texture, value, color
What can lines aid in, when alone or combined with other lines or shapes?
Lines can aid in appearance, readability, and message of a design.
Which lines suggest a feeling of rest? Why do you think?
Horizontal lines suggest a feeling of rest because when we see most lines they are straight and it's easy to spot these lines and it does not confuse people.
Vertical lines communicate a feeling of what? Why do you think?
A feeling of loftiness because the line is up and down and the meaning of loftiness is height.
What lines suggest a feeling of movement? Why do you think?
Diagonal lines because its like gravity or dancers. Dancers move around a lot and gravity lifts people up in space in a diagonal way.
Soft, shallow curved lines suggest what? Why do you think?
They suggest comfort, safety, and relaxation because the lines are smooth and they let people relax. People don't have to look for those lines and go crazy.
These lines suggest confusion and turbulence? Why do you think?
Deep, acute curve lines suggest confusion and turbulence because they are like violence of waves in a storm. Too much curves are happening in the picture and people will get confused.
What element defines a specific area of space? What is the difference between two dimensional shapes and three dimensional shapes?
Shapes. 2-D shapes are flat and have width and height, while 3-D shapes have width and height + depth.
Describe the difference between geometric shapes and organic shapes?
Geometric shapes are structured and symmetrical, while organic shapes are irregular and fluid. Organic shapes are also found in nature and man-made.
What are abstract shapes?
They are stylized or simplified versions of natural shapes. Example: wheelchair symbol.
Which basic shape projects an attitude of honesty or equality? A square
What do triangles suggest? They suggest action or even stability
Circles convey feelings of what? Protection or infinity
Describe positive space and negative space? What is texture? Incorporating texture into a design can help do what? What is value?
Positive space refers to objects and elements used in design. Examples: text, graphic, lines, photos, or shapes. Negative space (white space) refers to the shapes around and between those objects and elements. It also gives a place for the eye to rest. Texture refers to the actual of a design with a reader able to feel the texture of the paper and materials in the printed design. Incorporated texture can help create feeling of richness and depth. Value is the degree of light and dark in a design and give objects depth and perception creating illusion.
What is another name for value? What can the element of color do when incorporated into a design? Another name for value is tone. The element of color can convey moods, create images, attract attention, and identify objects.
