Movements the directions the line or edges move through a space. Rhythm are the effect of repeated similar line movements or similar shapes. Repetition refers to repeating any element, see above list. Contrast differences found comparing any single element. Such as contrast of (varities of that elemtnet.) DESIGN TERMS CONTINUED "colors" red contrasts with black.... texture: rough contrasts with smooth. Variety expresses numbers or differences, different kinds of elements or content. Unity expresses the appearance of oneness or harmony that every design requires. Emphasis is the effect of bringing some parts out or making prominent or dominant. Integration is when parts appear to fit together and have a sense of oneness.Tension results when elements do not fit harmoniously; but cause opposition or dissonance. Tension happens when line movement paths crash into another path Similarity of elements is the main method of making the composition harmonize.Harmony is the feeling of apparent correctness of having parts appear to belong together and to work together visually in a pleasant way. There is sufficient variety to cause the forms to be interesting and not boring but not so same and unvaried as to become boring. 2 Aims of Design: Variety in UnityForm Follows Function (Structure is appropriate for use or to communicate an idea)
