C.R.A.P. The principles of graphic design


CONTRAST occurs when two elements on a page are different. For example, it could be different  colors between the text and the background color. It could be a heading set in a big, bold, grungy font combined with a sans-serif font for the body text. It could be a difference between a large graphic and a small graphic or it could be a rough texture combined with a smooth texture. Our eyes like contrast.
REPETITION The principle of repetition simply means the reusing of the same or similar elements throughout your design. Repetition of certain design elements in a design will bring a clear sense of unity, consistency, and cohesiveness.

Line Design Challenge:
You must express the word you were given using only abstract lines made of paper.

Lines can vary – Thick vs Thin Long vs Short Angular vs Curvy
but they are not shapes.

Abstract means no recognizable objects, letters/numbers, or symbols.
Consider the importance of negative space in your design.
