Graphic Design Worksheet: Principles of Design

Animation and design lesson 10: Principles of design · Set 12 · 40 questions

Creator's tip (How to arrange it): Contrast = strong differences; alignment = lined-up edges; repetition = the same styles again. Proximity = related things close together; balance = even visual weight. Hierarchy = the most important thing biggest and first.
