Emphasis - Focal Point
One of the first tasks in designing a space is to choose the focal point and then apply your chosen form of balance and the remaining design principles. Remember, a room where everything gets equal importance will seem either scattered or boring.
Balance
When things are balanced, everything feels right. Yet even within this 'simple' principle, there are three options: radial, symmetrical and asymmetrical balance.
Radial Balance - Items are distributed and arranged around a central point.
Asymmetrical Balance - Different elements with similar weights on the opposite axis.
Symmetrical Balance - Used in traditional focused designs, symmetrical balance is the easiest form of balance to apply and can be executed with form or colour.
