One harsh truth that all designers learn at the start, that without a solid, well balanced composition, everything falls short.
No matter how original the idea, how great the color palette, if it doesn’t feel a cohesive whole, it does not work.
Achieving a good composition is the greatest challenge in any graphic design project.
In this part of my new Design Theory series we cover a crucially important topic, the principles of a well structured design,wherethe composition creates the underlying framework of the entire piece.
Mastering this subject may very well make a big difference in the quality of your work, helping you to transition from an enthusiastic beginner to an advanced designer.
The purpose of this course
If you ever struggled with a design project, ditching one idea after the other, struggling to find the right layout, it is not your fault.
Learning about composition will open up your creativity. You will immediately know where to go with an idea, how to position the elements across your space to create a great, dynamic composition. Your composition will act as a visual framework that holds everything together as an invisible glue.
By analyzing literally 100s of real-world examples we will train your eye to see these principles in effect. You will be able to see the slightest mistakes that can throw the framework off balance, the nuances that most viewers just feel, but cannot comprehend.
The purpose of this course is that by the end of it, you will be able to effortlessly elevate any existing design piece by rearranging its elements. You will be able to quickly come up with variations on the same idea, simply by trying out different compositional approaches.
This not only speeds up your workflow but allows you to create intriguing versions you can present to your client.

-
Rule of thirds,

Golden ratio,

Direction, Flow and Silhouette,
