Principles of Desgin

 



The subject that has the emphasis placed on it in all three pictures is placed in the center of the frame. The first and third pictures, the flower and center of the table, both use the portrait mode on the iPhone to blur out the background. This puts emphasis on the subject of the image as your attention naturally goes to the part of the picture with the most clarity, and on top of this, the subject resides in the center of both images. For the second picture, the car picture, the subject is the nicer car in the middle. The emphasis is placed on the center car because it is in the center of the frame, but it is also the car out of the three in the frame that is facing the camera. 





These three pictures all show patterns and some level of symmetry. The second picture and the third picture are almost completely symmetrical. In the hallway, the floor design is identical throughout the entire hallway, the base design, and the orange and black pattern tiles. There are small things that are not completely symeetical, such as the fire extingushar on the left in the front of the second image, but there is an indentical fire extenguisher on the right further down the hallway. For the third image it is not completly syymetircal as the papers posted on the doors are differnet, however becasue they are in direct oppsoition in the way they were put up, landscape vs portrarit, it works well because they are also on oppsotie sides of the pictures, with the split being where the two doors meet in the middle. The focus of the first painting is the sky, with the sun theorteically taking center stage, but in reality the focus is more on the beatufiul clouds that are covering the skies. The main patter is that of the clouds, which color and general shape wise are similar enough so they look very pleasing, but are differnet enough in the shading that was captured, where they are on the picture, and the density of the clouds that it does not look plain or boring. Further more there are some more patterns on the bottom of the picture, the recylting and trashcan being doubled, the row of tables, and then the pattern in which the concerte slabs were laid on the ground, which prevents a massive juxteposition in design between the top half of the picture and the bottom half.
