Elements of Design

​

This section introduces the ingredients for a good layout - the Elements of Design. These are line, shape, texture, space, size, value and color. Which elements you choose and how you combine them will depend on the type of project and the message or feeling you want to communicate. Understanding the 7 elements is the key to make the right choices for a layout.
