Theories and Principles of Design
www.flowerschool101.com Contact us - 8773225666
Balance
The concept of visual equilibrium, and related to our physical sense of balance. It is a reconciliation of opposing forces in a composition that results in visual stability.

Proportion
Keeps relative size, color and texture of the flowers to create a pleasing arrangement.
Floral designs should be at least 1 ½ to 2 times the height or width of the container.

Rhythm
Rhythm can be described as timed movement through space; an easy, connected path along which the eye follows a regular arrangement of motifs. The presence of rhythm creates predictability and order in the composition.

Emphasis
Emphasis is also referred to as point of focus, or interruption. It marks the locations in a composition which most strongly draw the viewers’ attention. Usually there is a primary or main point of emphasis, with perhaps secondary emphasis in other parts of the composition.

Unity
Unity is the underlying principle that summarizes all of the principles and elements of design. It refers to the coherence of the whole, the sense that all of the parts are working together to achieve common result: a harmony of all the parts.
