Contrast
“The idea behind contrast is to avoid elements on the page that
are merely similar. If the elements (type, color, size, line thickness, shape, space, etc.) are not the same, then make them very different.”

Repetition
“Repeat visual elements of the design throughout the piece . . . .
This develops the organization and strengthens the unity.”

Alignment
“Nothing should be placed on the page arbitrarily. Every element should have some visual connection with another element on the page.”

Proximity
“Items related to each other should be grouped close together. When several items are in close proximity to each other, they become one visual unit rather than several separate units.”

BEING CREATIVE
involves doing something. It would be odd to describe as creative someone who never did anything. To call somebody creative suggests that they are actively producing something in a deliberate way.
