d)Establish hierarchy (Which text is more important and why. Which elements should be large, which should be small, etc.)
Emphasis & Hierarchy
Hierarchy - Definition
HIERARCHY - the process of ranking elements (graphics and text) in order of importance.
Hierarchy is the basis for every design decision. Ask yourself this question:
What Do I Want The Viewer to See 1st?
Using High Contrast
1. Set items apart throughthe use of high contrast.
2. Make “bold” designmoves - not subtle ones.Slight variations irritatethe eye and confusethe viewer.
Key to Clear Hierarchy: Rank & Simplify
1. White space is your friend!
Key to Clear Hierarchy: Rank & Simplify
2. Don’t cram toomuch information,graphics on one page.Keep it simple!
Key to Clear Hierarchy: Rank & Simplify
3. Group relatedelements — bulletpoints, lists, names,etc… and isolatethem for emphasis.It helps to brake upblocks of text andgraphics.
Adding Contrast with Text
1. Bold, italics, UPPERCASE, underlined…
2. Size text, but don’toverdo it. Don’t use more than 3 differenttext sizes in the same composition.
Adding Emphasis Through the Use of Color
1. Use color to separateelements or establisha clear focal point.
2. Use colors sparingly - not too many.
Adding Emphasis Through the Use of Color
