I have to be honest, this brought me back to Design 101 as a freshman in college.

There are 6 principles of design that are at the foundation of every design project. Whether we’re working on a website design or sketching a new logo design for a client, these principles are at the core of every single project. Have a look at the infographic (put together by FOLO) below:

6 Principles of Design

1. Unity / Harmony
2. Balance
3. Hierarchy
4. Scale / Proportion
5. Dominance / Emphasis
6. Similarity & Contrast

The Infographic

When designing anything, these 6 principles of design are always at work.

Depending on how they are applied determines how successful a design is going to be.
