31. DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND ELEMENTS

1. EMPHASIS
• refers to the importance or value given to a part of
the text-based content
• to make a point or highlighting a message, you can
make the text bold, italicized, have a heavier weight,
darkened or lightened (depending on your
background color) or enlarged

2. APPROPRIATENESS
• refers to how fitting or suitable the text is used for a
specific audience, purpose or event
• as for the choice of typefaces to be used, refer to the
discussion of the characteristics of the fonts

3. PROXIMITY
• refers to how near or how far are the text elements
from each other
• when two things are closely related, we bring them
close together. Otherwise, we put text elements far
from each other
• for example, the main title and subtitle are usually
placed close to each other

5. ORGANIZATION
• refers to a conscious effort to organize the different
text elements in a page
• ensures that while some text elements are separated
from each other (based on the principle of proximity),
they are still somehow connected with the rest of the
elements in the page

6. REPETITION
• concerns consistency of elements and the unity of the
entire design
• encourages the use of repeating some typefaces
within the page

7. CONTRAST
• creates visual interest to text elements
• achieved when two elements are different from each other
• can be achieved in various ways, by joining the following
elements: white text on a dark background, dark text on a
white background, large font with a small font, serif and
sans serif, thin elements with thin elements, cool color and
warm color.

Editor's Notes
This learning competency was already covered in the Lesson “Information Literacy” and “Information Sources”.
evaluate the reliability and validity of text information and media and its/ their sources using selection criteria (MIL11/12TIM-IVb-5)
A man blatantly ignores a traffic warning sign that reads 'No crossing, somebody was killed already' in a street in Sta. Mesa, Manila on January 22, 2011.
Hypertext vs Hyperlink (http://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-hypertext-and-vs-hyperlink/)
•Hypertext and hyperlinks are interrelated terms and powerful tools cross linking websites on the net.
•Hypertext is the word or the text that has been anchored with a reference that takes one to additional source of information instantly by just clicking on it.
•Hyperlink is the URL to which this hypertext takes one to.

Which of the following file types are you familiar with?
1. Emphasis - refers to the importance or value given to a part of the text-based content. When trying to make a point or highlighting a
message, you can make the text bold, italicized, have a heavier weight, darkened or lightened (depending on your background color) or
enlarged.
Beautiful emphasis created by nice proportions that get our attention to what the site is about and also to the donate button.
2. Appropriateness - refers to how fitting or suitable the text is used for a specific audience, purpose or event. In the creation of text-based
content, make sure that the selection criteria (tone, style, purpose, clarity) is followed. As for the choice of typefaces to be used, refer to the
discussion of the characteristics of the fonts. When it comes to large body text, the font should be clear enough to read.
Why is this font a wrong choice for a gravestone?
Will you trust Dr. Brown if this is the font used in his calling card?
3. Proximity - refers to how near or how far are the text elements from each other. When two things are closely related, we bring them close
together. Otherwise, we put text elements far from each other. For example, the main title and subtitle are usually placed close to each
other.
Which one shows text proximity? Why?
4. Alignment - refers to how the text is positioned in the page. This can be left, right,
center or justified.

5. Organization - refers to a conscious effort to organize the different text elements in a page. Organization ensures that while some text elements are separated from each other (based on the principle of proximity), they are still somehow connected with the rest of the elements in the page. When there are many elements needed to fit in a page, start by creating a framework or a compartment for the elements. Divide the space by creating lines across the page, making it look like a cabinet with various space sizes. Once you are done compartmentalizing, you can place the different text elements on the boxes.

How is organization achieved in this design?
6. Repetition- concerns consistency of elements and the unity of the entire design. Repetition encourages the use of repeating some typefaces within the page. When several typefaces are used on a page, it might distract the audience and fail to communicate what you want them to get from the content. To strike a balance, do not also use just a single typeface for a visual design product.
How is text repetition achieved in this design?
7. Contrast- creates visual interest to text elements. Contrast is achieved when two
elements are different from each other. When you place a white text on a very light yellow background, contrast is not achieved and the text will be difficult to read, but when you put a white text on a dark brown background, contrast is created. Contrast can be achieved in various ways, by joining the following elements: large font with a small font, serif and sans serif, thin elements with thin elements, cool color and warm color.
How is contrast achieved in this design?
What do you think should have done in this poster in terms of emphasis to avoid what happened in their event where chaos and stampede occurred (luckily nobody was seriously hurt).
Answer: In terms of poster design, applying emphasis on the text “Strictly for first 80 Customers” could have help in avoiding chaos or stampede.
