WRMS Principles of Design

Notas del editor

  1. The basic principles of design include the following:
  2. Symmetrical or Formal Balance is the arrangement of forms on one side of an imaginary central dividing line, axis or plane is the mirror image of the other side. Associated with the beauty of nature. Repose and dignity.
  3. Asymmetrical or Informal Balance brings elements that are not matching into equilibrium. Asymmetrical balance can be achieved through placement, shapes, colors, sizes, and other aspects of objects. Uneven hem or one shoulder shirt are examples
  4. Asymmetrical or Informal Balance brings elements that are not matching into equilibrium. Asymmetrical balance can be achieved through placement, shapes, colors, sizes, and other aspects of objects. Uneven hem or one shoulder shirt are examples
  5. Proportion is the ratio of one part to another part or to the whole. It involves shape, size, and visual weight of an object. Things just look “right”. Greek proportion. The golden section/mean/ratio, an ancient system of proportion. In this system when a line is divided into two unequal segments so the ratio of the short segment to the long segment is the same as the long segment to the total length of the line. Palladian proportion. This method sought relationship between each part of a building. Palladio felt that the rooms of a building should share common ratios with the exterior of the building. (Based on geometric whole numbers, such as 2:3, 3:5, 5:8, 4:7). Measured proportion. This system, developed by Le Corbusier, used ratios from the golden section for smaller dimensions, and measurements of parts of the human body for larger dimensions. (Each determined ratio then needed intuitive adjustment.) Fibonacci series. He was a mathematician who found that (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) were the most satisfactory for his calculations. (They are not exact figures but they are close.) This system is similar to the Golden section in that, as each number is added to the next, the third number is a combination of the first two. Unequal amounts are more pleasing to the eye than equal amounts.

  7. Emphasis is the feature that is seen first and that repeatedly draws attention. On her dress you immediately notice the red top. It is where your eye is drawn first. This is the focal point.

  9. Repetition is created when a design element is repeated. Can be achieved through color, line, form, or texture. Can sometimes lead to monotony, so it must be balanced against the need for variety.
  10. Repetition is created when a design element is repeated. Can be achieved through color, line, form, or texture. Can sometimes lead to monotony, so it must be balanced against the need for variety.
  11. Repetition is created when a design element is repeated. Can be achieved through color, line, form, or texture. Can sometimes lead to monotony, so it must be balanced against the need for variety.
  12. Gradation : a gradual change in color value from dark to light or by a regular change from smaller to large parts that all have the same shape. Blue dress: gradation in color-dark to light. Lilac dress: Her dress does from thin sections at the top to thick sections at the bottom.
  13. Radiation : lines flow out from a central point.
  14. Transition is achieved when curved lines carry the eye over an architectural feature or piece of furniture.
  15. This room demonstrates Unity with enough Variety to keep it from being monotonous .
  16. Unity allows the viewer to see a design as a whole rather than seeing it as a collection of different elements. Ideally, everything relates so well that nothing can be added, taken away, or altered without changing the totality. Unity can be achieved through matching and coordinated fabrics, closely related colors, stylistic consistency, etc. Can carry a threat of monotony.

Unity can be achieved through matching and coordinated fabrics, closely related colors, stylistic consistency, etc. Can carry a threat of monotony.
  18. Variety can relieve monotony by giving the eye a number of different shapes, textures, colors, or details to look at. All the varied components of an interior must relate to each other and to the overall theme of the design. Contrast can heighten values through comparison. A light color will seem lighter when placed near a dark color, a large object larger in contrast with something small. Variety and contrast can help to punctuate harmony and unity. This room may not have enough variety. Although there is Unity, there is not much to look at.
