Harmony, rhythm, unity, variety, repetition, proportion, and balance are key design principles that help organize visual elements. Harmony uses repetition and rhythm to pull elements together, while unity helps all parts function as a whole. Variety adds interest through differences and contrasts. Repetition unifies through consistency. Proportion gives quantity and depth, and balance arranges elements so no part seems heavier than others. Examples of each principle are shown through images that demonstrate the fundamentals of visual organization and interpretation.
2. HARMONY Harmony pulls the pieces of a visual image together. It can be achieved through repetition and rhythm Looking at images displayed indicates all the fundamentals of how we view harmony either in nature, in art or even in landscape.
4. Rhythm It helps direct eye movement. it’s the flow depicted in a visual and it gives breath to a design. Rhythm in all these displayed images that is a fixture that profound and gives of that feel to a image. Looking and observing these images. they really give and bring that rhythm to it, how the extended and features in all the images.
6. Unity Unity is a relationship amongst elements of a visual that helps all these elements function together. In other words, these words and images work together to create a meaning. Also unity helps to organize a visual image, facilitating interpretation and understanding. It can also be achieved through the use of space and through the use of a common background.
8. Variety It consists of differences in objects that add interest to a visual image. It can also be achieved by using opposites or strong contrasts. Through these objects, variety is more with harmony relating different backgrounds to bring out the main objects and this by blending all these images to extend a piece or a visual.
10. Repetition: The purpose of repetition is to unify and to add visual interest It can also be thought of as consistency, as you look through the images shown their consistency that they display and in that we take that form and we use it in repetition to give and establish an understanding of what we are doing through art/design and why we are doing it.
12. Proportion: It plays an important role compelling designs and giving quantity elements to a design. it also helps by giving visual weight and depth. It is the spatial relationship between shapes, lines or objects that has much more to do with the success or failure of a work of art than whether or not a particular element has proportions correctly mimicking that of the object it might be representing. Proportion is the spatial relationship (either 2D or 3D) between one element and another.
14. Balance: It is arranging elements so that no other one can over power the other or seems heavier than the other part. The are three times of balance that play a major role in art , asymmetrical ,symmetrical and radial. When looking through these images all these three different elements of balance are found, looking at the cross which its symmetrical and asymmetrical and also the image next to its radial with a little bit of symmetrical.
