| How to Seize Design Essentials?
Design is a world of both art and science. It needs skill and
technology in order to succeed. In addition, you can achieve
success in this field if you are knowledgeable of the important
basics of design. Design is a process. It has to be purposeful,
arty and informational. You need to be meticulous with its
essentials. Design essentials include color, fonts, shape,
texture, dynamism, animation, photography and the principles of
using artwork.
You are what colors you use. If you do not want to be
misinterpreted, then be cautious when choosing your colors
because colors represent changeable characters and identities.
It is sometimes relative to culture, age, gender and the likes.
Font is as equally important as other essentials. The advisable
size of a point ranges from 10-12, less or more than that can be
disastrous and may be hard to read. If you are not sure of what
font to use, stick to conventional fonts like Times New Roman
and Arial.
Shape gives contour to your work of art. It gives an aura of
formality, trickiness, femininity or masculinity of a given art.
Bear in mind though that simplicity must be upheld. Being simple
is still attractive.
Texture creates the feel of your masterpiece. At the very onset,
you can feel the warmth, cheerfulness or gloom of a site. It
tells whether the appearance is boring or not. Be aware though
that viewers are easily devastated so as much as possible create
a pleasant site. Not only pleasant to the eyes but to all our
senses to make a good impression.
Dynamism means lively, energetic and functional. Your site must
cater to the needs of the viewers. It must not only be pretty
but ‘meaty’ as well. It must be informative and gives the
visitors what they want.
Animation is the effects using moving images to convey a
message. They can be very entertaining on the part of the
visitors. If you have it in your site, you can be assured that
your visitors will not be bored because they need not read the
content. The image will just convey the message to them.
Photography is another essential element. They say that picture
paints a thousand words so if you don’t want to narrate use
pictures to do it for you. You need not go into details when you
have photographs to discuss the matter that easy.
Above anything else use the principles of using artwork at your
own advantage. You can experiment though, because art is all
about expression and idiosyncrasy.
Design is a visual language. Thus, you must aim for
comprehension. To achieve this you must be clear, concise and
functional in presenting your design.
