Using Shapes

Shape is defined as any element that’s used to determine or give form.

Guidelines For Using Shapes

Think about what is the most appropriate way for you to use a shape.

Is it a photograph, illustration, block of color or a block of text?

Remember, less is more, don’t drag you viewers eyes all over the place by using

too many shapes.

If you have a large block of body text, will the design benefit if you break it

up using shapes?

Are the shapes you’re using leading the viewers eye to the right places?If they aren’t, why are you

using them?

Don’t add shapes purely for decorations purposes. They are

a powerful tool in communicating a message.

What is the message you are trying to send in your design?
