RHYTHM

Repeated use of line, shape, color, texture, or


pattern

 Regular rhythm
An element is repeated at the same
repetition/interval each time.
 Graduated rhythm
 Random rhythm
The beats of the element are random or
at irregular intervals.
 Gradated rhythm
The repeated element is identical with
the exception of one detail increasing or
decreasing gradually with each
repetition.

EMPHASIS

 The feature in a design that attracts


one’s eye – the focal point
 Emphasis can be achieved through size,
placement, shape, color, and/or use of
lines.

PROPORTION AND SCALE

elements in a design with respect to
size.
