I’ve taken design courses in the past, so I am fairly familiar with it. The elements of design are:
- line
- color
- shape
- size
- space
- texture
- form
- contrast
- value
- typography
- symbols & metaphors
- balance
- rhythm
- unity & harmony
Graphic design is purposeful planning that uses any combination of forms, pictures, words, and meanings to achieve one’s goal.
In graphic design, I consider these elements. I designed a poster for a play at Cloud County Community College last year. I used complimentary colors, a square to outline the information, and simple typography that’s easy to read.
