1
Contrast
Highlighting important information through difference.
Slide 4 of 11
Slide 4 - Contrast: Guided Notes
- Definition: Contrast happens when two elements are (e.g., big vs. small, dark vs. light).
- Purpose: It creates visual hierarchy and draws the eye.
- Key Idea: Make elements very different, not just a little bit different.
- Space for Examples: [Draw or list an example of high contrast here]

Repetition
Maintaining consistency throughout a design.

Slide 6 - Repetition: Guided Notes
- Definition: Repetition is the use of visual elements (color, shape, font) to create unity.
- Purpose: It helps build a strong brand or style and ties the design .
- Key Idea: Don't just use something once; repeat it to establish a pattern.
- Space for Examples: [Draw or list a repeated element example here]

Slide 7 - Alignment
3
Alignment
Creating a strong, invisible connection.
Slide 8 of 11
Slide 8 - Alignment: Guided Notes
- Definition: Alignment means nothing is placed on the page. Every element has a visual connection.
- Purpose: It makes the layout look organized, clean, and to read.
- Key Idea: Align items to a grid or edge, rather than floating in space.
- Space for Examples: [Draw a well-aligned layout sketch here]

Proximity
Grouping related items together.
Slide 10 of 11
Slide 10 - Proximity: Guided Notes
- Definition: Proximity is grouping items together so they are seen as one unit.
- Purpose: It reduces clutter and tells the viewer how to the information.
- Key Idea: If things are related, put them physically close. If not, separate them.
- Space for Examples: [Sketch how group boxes here]
