Elements of Design – Info graphic

The essential elements of design, lines, shapes, colours, size, texture, space and values. These ‘rules’ form a good foundation for a solid piece of design work, however, that does not mean that they are unbreakable. Pushing the boundaries, can often produce impressive results, however it is essential to understand the basics before pushing further. Some, if not all of these elements will appear in all well designed items.
