3. Basic Principles of DESIGN
The FOUR Basic Principles
1 Alignment
2 Proximity
3 Repetition
4 Contrast
4. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Alignment gives the layout a
clean and organized feeling
Centered Text
Left justified Right justified
And Justified are all examples of Alignment
๏ง Never combine Centered with any other
Alignment
๏ง Itโs best to choose one alignment and
use it for the entire page
5. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Alignment
๏ง All elements should be visually
connected
๏ง Avoid arbitrary placement
๏ง Turn off borders
๏ง Organization is the key
6. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Proximity
๏ง Items that are related to each other
should be intellectually grouped
together
๏ง Organizes information
๏ง Provides a clear structure and brings
balance to the layout
7. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Proximity
๏ง Use Heads, Sub heads, Type Faces
(light, bold, semibold, etc.) as tools to
help group items
๏ง Keep visual space between elements
๏ง Unity and Organization are the key
๏ง Do not be afraid to use โWhite Space,โ
but do not use too much
8. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Repetition
๏ง Select a constant aspect and repeat it
throughout the ppt to tie disparate
parts together
๏ง A few elements of Repetition are:
Fonts, Color, Bullets, Texture,
Graphics, and Format
9. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Repetition
๏ง A layout without Repetition feels and
looks bland
๏ง Consistency, or developing a unified
theme, is the key
10. Basic Principles of DESIGN
๏ง Creates a Focal Point to pull the viewer in
๏ง Avoid elements that are similar - if everything has equal
priority, then nothing has priority
๏ง What is not the same - make different
Contrast
11. Basic Principles of DESIGN

15. Basic Principles of DESIGN
๏ง Two elements on a slide should be
displayed differently
๏ง Balance, or arrangement of items,
is the key
Contrast TIPS
16. Basic Principles of DESIGN
๏ง Sans Serif type works better than Serif
(opposite from Print)
๏ง Background should not interrupt the text
๏ง Text should be big enough to read, but
not too big
๏ง Columns of text should be narrower than
in a book to make reading easier on the
screen
๏ง Give โbreathing roomโ around text
A Word about TEXT
17. Basic Principles of DESIGN
A Word about COLOR
๏ง Color creates contrast
๏ง Warm colors (reds, oranges) come forward - command attention
๏ง Cool colors (blues, greens) recede
Warm

๏ง Pleaseโฆno big, dorky buttons
A Word about BUTTONS
19. Basic Principles of DESIGN
๏ง Primary goal is to make it easy for visitors to
get the information they need - the key is
Organization
๏ง Whatever style you choose, make it clear
and simple to follow
๏ง Beware! Do not sacrifice clear
communication for unclear cleverness.
A Word about NAVIGATION
20. Basic Principles of DESIGN
Visualize Look at the work of others
- What catches your eye?
Criticize Separate good from bad
- What style do you like?
Analyze Study the world around you
- What looks good?
LOOK at the World
Like a DESIGNER
21. Basic Principles of DESIGN
๏ง Busy distracting backgrounds that make
text hard to read
๏ง No blinking anything, especially text;
itโs annoying!
๏ง Avoid animations that never stop
๏ง Unclear or complex navigation
๏ง No focal point OR too many focal points
on a page
๏ง Avoid side scrolling
Some Design Tips:
The Donโts
22. Basic Principles of DESIGN

๏ง Link colors coordinate with page colors
๏ง Create clear and consistent Navigation
throughout the site
๏ง Use repetitive elements to make each
page look like it belongs to the same site
๏ง Check Spelling!
