 The principles of art
design

 Elements of arts are parts of a whole while
perception of art design are rules or guides to help
one put these elements together.
 Harmony

 Harmony is the principle which produces an
impression of unity through the selection and
arrangements of consistent objects and ideas.
 Harmony of lines and shapes – lines are made
harmonious by either repeating the shape of the lines
or by connecting transitional to contrasting lines..
 Harmony of size- harmony of size refers to good
proportion.


 Harmony of color-creating harmony of colors means
using two or more colors in decorating an article or
object.
 Harmony of texture – the character of texture can be
determined by feeling objects with the finger tips or by
looking at it.
 Harmony of idea-combining antique and modern
furniture in the same room does not show harmony of
idea.
 Rhythm

 In design rhythm is the regular uniform or related
visual movement made through the repetition of a
unit or motif.
 Rhythm classified into formal and informal.
 Balance

 Balance is a condition or quality which gives a
feeling of rest, repose, equilibrium or stability.
 Two types of balance :

 Formal or symmetrical balance: it is a balance of
equal visual weights placed at equal distance from
the axis.
 Informal or asymmetrical: is the balance of unequal
visual weights , the heavier one being nearer the axis
and the lighter one axis.
 Proportion

 Is the art principle which shows pleasing
relationship between the parts themselves.
 Emphasis

 Emphasis is the principle of arts which tends to carry
the eyes from the center of interest or dominant part
of any composition to the less important or
subordinate parts.
 Methods of Emphasizing
Objects
1.

By arrangement or grouping of objects. If objects are grouped
together, the one to be emphasized should be located at the center
and should be the biggest and brightest in color.
2. By decoration. Objects which have decorations are given more
emphasis than those without them.
3. By color contrast. contrasting color such as the complimentary
combinations and triads are more emphatic than analogous or any
related harmonies.
4. by the use plain background space . Simple decoration which are
placed against sufficient, plain background will be more emphatic
than when the background space is small.
5. by the use of unusual lines, shapes, and size of color. Novelty or
newness can also draw attention to a specific element of the work.
6. By action or movement. Dynamic illustration usually attract more
attention than the passive ones.
