PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN

Balance: defined in floral design as visual stability, it is usually the first principle noticed.

Proportion:
is defined as a ratio between areas and amounts to each other and to the whole.

Rhythm:
is achieved by having a dominant visual path of line and/or color through the design, making design appear to be alive.

Contrast:
achieved by placing opposite or unlike elements together in such a way as to utilize their differences, to create interest.

Dominance:
the greater force of one or more of those elements contrasted above. Scale: size relationship of one object in design compared to another.

Conclusion:
the Elements of Design are tangible ingredients in the design recipe, while the intangible Principles of Design are directions for combining those ingredients into successful design.
