Introduction
Hi..here I'm giving you the basic overview about the Elements and Principles of Designing.
The presentation will give you a good understanding about the significance, meaning and the types of designing elements and principles .
What are they?? Why they
were used??
![Page 3: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Significance of the Topic
Sometimes we have to give our opinion about likes or dislikes on a piece of art or a design, and it’s easy to say just “ I like this, or I don’t like that…”. But if we are asked to give the reasons for it , then it proves to be a very difficult to find out the reason.
This generally happens because we judge the designs on its appeal rather than on its articulate sub-factors. Therefore it’s imperative to know the meaning and the types of the designing elements and principles.
Can you evaluate this piece of art???

Designing Elements and Principles proves to be an
analyzing frame forthe designers.
A designer can express his thought & intentions with the elements of design and does it effectively along with the design principles, i.e. they serves as an expressing tool for designers.
Designer who knows the design Elements & Principles
can evaluate the design/page in terms of line, color, balance, texture,
etc.
Now, let us discus these Elements & Principles!!!

Elements Of Design
![Page 6: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Meaning
“Elements of Design are the components or part which can be isolated & defined in any visual design or work of art.
They structure and carry the work.”
![Page 7: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Basic Elements of Design
Following are the seven basic elements of design which are common throughout the field of designing.
1. Point / Mark2. Line3. Shape4. Forms5. Space6. Color7. Texture
Can someone tell us about the Elements of Design???
![Page 8: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Point (Mark)
A point or mark is the smallest and most basic element . It can vary in size, value, regularity or irregularity, and can be used alone as a unit in a group.
Marks can be used to form a value or pattern ( placed close together forms a darker value, further apart forms a lighter value), or to delineate space ( larger means closer,etc.)
![Page 9: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Line
A line is a form with width and length, but no depth. Artist use lines to create edges, the outlines of objects. The direction of a
line can convey mood. Broadly lines can be categorized into three types
1. Horizontal2. Vertical3. Diagonal
![Page 10: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Example of Horizontal Lines Horizontal lines are calm and quiet.
![Page 11: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Example of Vertical Lines Vertical lines suggest more of a potential for movement.
![Page 12: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Example of Diagonal Lines Diagonal lines strongly suggest movements and give more of a feeling of vitality to a picture.
![Page 13: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Shape
Shape is defined as an area that stands out from the space next to or around it due to a defined or implied boundary, or because of differences of value, color, or texture.
A shape is formed when a line encloses an area. Shapes have two dimensions, length and width and can be geometric or
free-form.
![Page 14: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Forms
Forms describes volumes and mass, or the 3D aspects of objects that take up space.
Forms can and should be viewed from any angles. For example: When you hold a baseball, or a small sculpture, you are
aware of their curves, angles, indentations, & edges i.e. their forms.
![Page 15: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Space
Space is a 3D volume that can be empty or filled with objects. It has width, height, and depth.
Space that appears three- dimensional in a 2D painting is an illusion that creates a feeling of actual depth.
Several techniques can be used to show such visual depth or space, for example, overlapping, linear perspective, etc..
Example for Overlapping
![Page 16: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Other Examples
Detail (aerial or atmospheric perspective) Linear perspective ( converging lines )
![Page 17: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Color
Color has three properties. The first is hue, which is the name of the colors. - the primary hue are Yellow, Red, and Blue. - secondary colors are made by mixing two primaries. - intermediate colors are mixtures of a primary & adjacent secondary color. The second property is Value, which refers to the lightness or darkness of
hue. The third property is Intensity, which refers to the purity of the hue also
known as “Chroma”.

Texture
Texture refers to the surface quality, both simulated and actual, of artwork.
![Page 20: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Meaning
“The Principles of Design are the artistic guidelines used to organize or arrange the structural elements
of design.”
![Page 22: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Basic Principles of Designing
Following are the six basic principles of effective design which are common throughout the field of designing (i.e. from print design to lithography, typography, & industrial design).
1. Balance2. Contrast3. Emphasis4. Pattern5. Rhythm/Movement6. Unity
Principles ??????
![Page 23: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Balance
Balance refers to the appropriate arrangement of objects in a design to create the impression of equality in weight or importance. Balance provides stability and structure to a design. Balance may be symmetrical and asymmetrical, but the goal should be to achieve equilibrium.
Symmetrical Balance can be described as having equal “weight” on equal sides of a centrally placed fulcrum. It is also known as formal balance.
Asymmetrical Balance is more complex and difficult top envisage. It involves placement of objects in a way that will allow objects of varying visual weight to balance one another around a fulcrum point. It is also known as informal balance.
![Page 24: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Examples
Balance is formal when both sides aresymmetrical in terms of arrangement.
Balance is informal when sides are notexactly symmetrical, but the resulting
image is still balanced.
![Page 25: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Rhythm
Rhythm or movement is regarded as a visual temp or beat. It refers to a regular repetition of elements to produce the look and feel of a movement.
Rhythm can be achieved through the careful placement of repeated components. It can be directed for example, along edges & by means of shape and colour.
Rhythm can be categorized Random, Regular, Alternating, Progressive, and Flowing.
![Page 26: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Emphasis
The term emphasis literally means to give importance. Emphasis in designing refers to give special attention to one part of a work of
art. It can be achieved through placement, contrast, colour, size, repetition, etc. For example: A dark shape in a light composition
![Page 27: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Contrast
Contrast refers to the juxtaposition of different elements of design (for example: rough & smooth textures, dark & light values)in order to highlight their differences or create visual interest , or a focal point.
Contrast allows us to emphasize or highlight key elements in your design.
![Page 28: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Pattern
Pattern in a design simply refers to keeping your design in a certain format. It is often described as a regular arrangement of alternated or repeated
elements (shapes, lines, colors) or motifs. For example: One could plan to have curved lines all around a design as a pattern.
![Page 29: Week 1 Elements and Principels of Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58ef60321a28abbd088b467b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Unity
Unity refers to the arrangement of elements to give the viewer the feeling that all the parts of the design or piece form a coherent whole i.e. designs must be in harmony in which all sections of the pattern make other sections feel complete.
It enables the design to be seen as one complete piece of art or design.
