Describe the visible design elements and principles in relation to the three images of the product.

•  Visual Analysis

1. The first photo shows a touch screen phone with a case that has a keyboard connected to it. The case has a call and end call button to make calling easier and when you open the case you get the touch phone and the keyboard.

Visual Design: Elements and Principles

1) 6 Visual Design Elements:
-Color is used to show how light reflects off the object and it also is used to show the difference in sides of an object.

-Lines are used to draw your design and show what your design looks like.

-Shape can be geometric or organic and and is an area that stands out from the space next to or around it due to a defined or implied boundary, or because of differences of value, color, or texture. Shapes can also show perspective by overlapping.

-Texture is used to show what something feels like, with implied texture it shows what an object should feel like.

-Value is used to give objects depth and perception. Also known as tone.

-Volume is the mass of an object encompassing the height, width and depth.

2) 5 Visual Design Principles
-Unity means that everything in the piece should be balanced, have repitition, and/ or have design harmony.

-Contrast is the occurence of differing elements, such as color, value, size, and etc. Contrast pulls the focus toward the facal point.

-Variety is ued to create interest and uniqueness in a piece.

-Emphasis is the use of sequence of various levels of focal points, primary focal point, secondary, tertiary, etc. that guides the eye into and out of the image. The primary focus point or area receives the largest emphasis in a room.

-Balance is symmetrical, asymmetrical, or radial. You can get balance by the location of objects, volume or size of objects, and by color.
