Principles of Design

Balance

Symmetrical 

Symmetrical balance dis[lays a formal feeling to the room, very organized outlook.

Asymmetrical 

Asymmetrical is known as informal balance, because the elements are different sizes, shapes and forms.

Emphasis 

Emphasis is the focal point of a room.  It is an area that draws attention immediately to that object.  Emphasis could be a number of different things. 

My Emphasis is: FLOWERS


Harmony

My theme was a Zen outlook. I think of peaceful and natural elements when someone says harmony. I used a variety of natural elements such as; the plants, wooden furniture, and natural colors.

Rhythm

·         Repetition: I used the same picture, and colors in the room.

·         Radiation: The pictures on the wall display radiation quite well.

·         Gradation: I used many shapes, the lamp design shows gradation by the shape getting smaller closer to the shade.

Scale and Proportion
