Explain the components of graphic design?
Graphic design is based on 7 important components: Line: It is any two connected points in a design. Lines divide space, stress on specific words/phrases and creating patterns. It directs the viewer’s attention in the desired direction. Color: Color has the most powerful impact on the audience. It can make a statement individually and with other components. A well-crafted color theory develops mood and emotions towards design and creates visual interest. Shape: It is defined by boundaries like color or line. All components come together to make a shape. Three types of shapes are geometric, natural and abstracted. Space: It is the area between different elements of a design. It defines importance and leads the viewer through the design. Effective use of space makes the user perceive the design better and positively. Texture: Texture is the surface, look and feel of the design. It adds depth and visual interest. Scale: Scale is the size of elements of a design. It impacts the viewer by creating emphasis and visual interest in the design. Typography: Typography is the styling of words using different fonts and sizes. Just like colors and shapes, typography expresses the nature of the design.
