CONTRAST• Avoid ‘similar’ elements - If they are
not the same, make them VERY Different
• Purpose:– Create Interest– Aid in Information Organisation– Support Visual Hierarchy
• The use of colour enables contrast

REPETITION• Repeat elements throughout to
create organisation and strengthen unity
• Purpose:– Unify and add interest– Consistency
• Avoid repeating an element to the point it becomes annoying or distracting

ALIGNMENT• No random element placement• Clean, sophisticated look with visual
connection of elements• Purpose:
– Unify and Organise
• Avoid:– More than 1 text alignment, over use of
centre-alignment
