How can you as the designer use principles of design to help compose a page? The principles of design can help a designer know where to place certain objects and items to appeal to the viewer on a primal level

What are the principles of design (define each in your own words)? Contrast, repetition, alignment, and proximity.

For each of the 4 principles of C.R.A.P., find an example that utilizes the principle within the design. You should have 4 DIFFERENT sample designs. For each, discuss how the particular principle is used.

Contrast: Very simple, this image helps to give a close look at the contrast with the different colors




Repetition: This simple repeat of squares gives a mind-altering feel that is both awing and disconcerting


Alignment: Having everything perfectly squared up gives the image a feeling of uniformity and righteousness as if it simply just should exist.




Proximity: The closeness of each object gives the image, as a whole, a feeling of cohesion and collective teamwork.
