Document Summary

Activity 6. 1 visual design principles and elements identification. Following the steps in the design process and applying visual design principles and elements are key ingredients leading to the overall effectiveness and tastefulness of a design. As you learned in previous lessons, the design process is a very important step-by-step framework that needs to be followed and revisited during a person"s attempt at product design. Following this process by itself does not guarantee an awe-inspiring solution. Using the right blend of visual design principles and elements can greatly enhance your product"s functionality, appearance, feel, and overall effectiveness. Selecting this proper combination is a difficult skill to develop, but can be achieved by immersing yourself in the design process throughout the year, tackling problem after problem, and letting your imagination run wild. Then again, maybe it"s the formal balance of its design that grabs your attention.
