Chapter: 10 Emphasis

 

         As designers we use emphasis a lot to convey what we want the audience to focus on. Why we emphasis is to help that vocal point stand out or that one object we want to be the main part of that design. There are so many ways you can emphasis in your design, from color, shape, value texture, positioning scale, the list is pretty wide. Every little thing you adjust helps bring out what your trying to tell your audience.
