Elements of Design

Elements Of Design are physical building blocks used to create a design. The Elements of Design (according to Usher) are: colour, line, shape, form, and texture.


Colour visual measurement of hue, saturation, and brightness



Line a mark or stroke long in proportion to its breadth

Shape a distinct object or body in having a distinct outline.

Form a three dimensional design











Texture describes the surface of something.













Elements of Design Assignment:
Define each of the Elements of Design with a short explanation and find 3 visual examples for each to exemplify the element. Add a title for each element and post to your design blog. Find some that represent something about you. You can try to redraw the element of design image for your next self-portrait project.
