*Design Elements and Principles are strongly suggested in 630 Visual Arts, 720 Clothing & Fashion, 760 HomeImprovement, and 770 Sewing & Needle Work. The written description of the exhibit must indentify the designelement(s) and/or art principle(s) used in this particular exhibit and how it is used. (Example: “I used the primarycolors red, blue, and yellow to emphasize the geometric shapes” not just “the element I used was color”......) See page22-23 for more information.

Your goals can be in any format - example: handwritten, computer, audio recording or video recording.

- When limited by exhibit space and size and nature of the exhibit, thedepartment superintendents reserve the right to rotate exhibits fordisplay. Exhibit displays should be in proportion to the main item oridea being displayed.

Below are some helpful tips ondesign elements and art principals.

For more information see fulldetails in Design Exploring theElements & Principles 4-H 634March 2000.

Elements of DesignA design is a visual plan you can use acreate your 4-H project. Everything can see his a design. When youdescribe something you see, you use words that tell about the lines,shapes, colors, textures, and spaces. Line, shape, color, texture, andspace are the basic elements of design.

LineLines can be horizontal, vertical, dotted, zig zag, curved, straight,diagonal, bold, or fine. Lines can show direction, lead the eye, outline onobject, divide a space, and communicate a feeling or mood.

ShapesShapes are made by connecting lines. Circle, square, triangle, andfreeform are words used to identify shapes. Look at the objects aroundyou, and describe their basic shapes. Are they one shape, or are they acombination of many shapes? After doing this several times, you willunderstand what shape really is. Line creates two dimensional or flatshapes. When shapes are three dimensional, we call them forms. Circlesare shapes; a ball is a form. Squares are shapes, but cubes are threedimensional and called forms. A sculpture is a three dimensional form.

ColorColor is described with the words hue, value, and intensity. Hue refers tothe name of the color – red or blue, for example. Value tells the lightnessor darkness of a hue. Intensity refers to the brightness or dullness of ahue. You can use a color wheel and learn how colors work together inthe publication, 4-H 633 Color.

TextureTexture is the surface quality and anitem. It’s how something feels whentouched, or looks like it would feel iftouched. Sandpaper is rough. Velvet issmooth. A drawing of a tee stumpcould show rough outer bark and asmooth inner surface. Search for waysto add texture to your projects. Textureadds variety and interest.

SpaceSpace refers to the area that a shape orform occupies. It also refers to thebackground against which we see theshape or form. Space can be defined aspositive or negative. The positive spaceof a design is the filled space in thedesign – often it is the shapes thatmake up the design. Negative space isthe background. The negative space indesign is as important as the positivearea.

Principles of DesignSome combinations of design elements (line, shape, color, texture, andspace) work better than others. Here are some guidelines to help youunderstand why some combinations work and others do not work aswell. These guidelines – rhythm, proportion, emphasis, balance, andunity – are the principles of design.

RhythmYou have felt rhythm in music. Rhythmis also a part of things you see. It allowsthe eye to move from one part of adesign to another part.

Rhythm can be created by:• Repeating a color, shape, texture, line

or space when designing.

• Varying the size of objects, shapes, or lines in sequence (small orlarge).

• Using a progression of colors from tints to shades (light blue to darkblue).

• Shifting from one hue to a neighboring hue )yellow to yellow-orange toorange to red-orange to red).

ProportionProportion refers to the relationshipbetween one part of a design andanother part or to the whole design.It is a comparison of sizes, shapes,and quantities. For example, therelationship between the vertical andhorizontal measurements of a wallhanging may be pleasing because theunequal lengths produce andinteresting contrast.

EmphasisEvery design needs an accent – a point of interest.Emphasis is the quality that draws your attentionto a certain part of a design first.

There are several ways to create emphasis:• Using a contrasting color.• Using a different or unusual line.• Making a shape very large or very small.• Using a different shape.• Using plain background space.

BalanceBalance gives a feeling of stability. There are threetypes of balance. Symmetrical, or formal balance, isthe simplest kind. An item that is symmetricallybalanced is the same on both sides. Our bodies are anexample of formal balance. If you draw and imaginaryline from your head to your toes dividing your bodyin half, you will be pretty much the same on bothsides.

page 22

Designs that have a radical balance have a center point.A tire, pizza, and a daisy flower are all examples of designwith radial balance. When you look through akaleidoscope, everything you see has a radial balance.

Asymmetrical balance creates a feeling of equalweight on both sides, even though the sides do notlook the same. Asymmetrical designs also calledinformal designs because they suggest movement andspontaneity. Asymmetrical balance is the hardesttype of balance to achieve and often takesexperimenting or moving elements around until balance is achieved.

UnityWhen things look right together, you have created unity or harmony.Lines and shapes that repeat each other show unity (curved lines withcurved shapes). Colors that have a common hue are harmonious.Textures that have a similar feel add to unity. But too much uniformitysometimes can be boring. At the same time, too much variety destroysunity.

Honesty of DesignHonesty of design refers to three specific areas – media, form, andfunction.

You are being honest with a medium when you are family with thatmedium, use it to its best advantage, and avoid making it look tosomething else. Clay should not be glazed to look like wood, and woodshould not be painted to look like clay bricks. Honesty related to formand function means that parts of a design should work in ways theywere intended. Doors on woodworking projects should not be fake; theyshould open. A flower pot should be designed to complement the flowersand not draw the most attention to the pot.

Ideas and InspirationsWhere do you get your ideas? Just as you do not copy form theencyclopedia when you write a term paper or from another person’spaper when you take a test, you should never copy another person’sdesign. You are what makes you designs special! Inspiration or sourcesfor designs may come from poetry, music, nature, and your ownphotographs and sketches. Let these inspirations be springboards foryour imagination.

Evaluating DesignEvaluating your designs and those of others can help you improve yourunderstanding about design.

You can get help in evaluating you work from many people, among themyour parents, other 4-Hers, leaders, teachers, and fair judges. There isseldom only one way to improve a design, so don’t be surprised ofdifferent people have different ideas on how you might chance yourwork. In the end, the decision is yours. Becoming a good designer takespractice. The more you talk about and play with the elements andprinciples of design, the easier it will be to use them effectively.

Here are some questions to ask yourself about your designs.

1. Where did you get the idea for your design?2. Describe one of the design elements. How did you use it?3. What do you like about the way your design looks?4. What might you change another time?5. Is your design honest in media, form, and function?

Vegetable and Fruit Section

When selecting entries for exhibit, the condition and uniformity of size are factors in judging, so choose carefully. Table usesize is preferred.Gently wash all dirt off, do not scrub!Do not remove husks from corn or skin from onions.A strip of corn husk is to be peeled back sufficiently so the judge may see top of each ear and condition of kernels.Exhibit herbs in water.Judge’s decisions are final.

Flower and Plant SectionMost flower specimens should be conditioned: cut stems evening before entering, place in water immediately, gently wash ifdirty, pick off any bugs or damaged leaves, keep in cool place overnight.

Condition, uniformity of blooms, straightness of stems, healthy foliage will be some of the factors considered by the judge.Labeling entry with name of variety will be an asset.

Bring specimens in suitable inexpensive clear glass containers (no colored). Stems must be visible to judge without removingflowers from container. Some attached foliage must remain on stem having foliage. Please do not have foliage under the waterline on specimens where removal is possible. All stems must be the same length.

The chairman shall have the right to remove an exhibit if it becomes unsightly. Exhibitors may replace wilted flowers, afterjudging, if they wish.

Helpful Hints:A spray is a branched stem with more than 1 bloom or bud.Dahlias - disbud, no green centers, stems straight.Daylilies - may have discarded blooms, which have been cut off.Gladiolas - don’t disbud.
