Graphic design exists in every industry. With a solid understanding and use of design principles, you could shift the perception of your brand. There are a number of areas in design that can be applied to any business including; colour psychology, repetition of elements, contrast, and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Principle #1: Utilisation of White Space<\/b><\/h3>\n

From a business owner’s perspective, you want to make sure all the information you have on your services is available to a user at any given time. However, from a design perspective, the more text used in a space creates clutter and pushes prospects away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Try utilising white space in your design with a strong headline that drives conversion and explains your business. Not only will your design team thank you, but so will your marketers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Principle #2: Experiment with Typography<\/b><\/h3>\n

Typography is the styling and overall appearance of fonts and text. Most businesses have what is referred to as a \u2018style guide\u2019. This normally contains your brand fonts, alignment, and colours. Spend time evaluating your font choice and alignment of your text on your website, print collateral, and digital channels. If you find they are difficult to read or simply don\u2019t align with your brand anymore – it may be time for a change!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are two main groups of font types known as; serif and sans serif. We recommend reading <\/span>Canva\u2019s Ultimate Guide to Font Pairing<\/span><\/a> to understand the differences as well as get your hands on some great font pairings!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Principle #3: Content Hierarchy is Important<\/b><\/h3>\n

By structuring your content in an appropriate hierarchy, you are helping your users to navigate through your collateral with ease. When accessing anything that you have written, it\u2019s important to understand the difference between \u2018Headline, Sub Headline, Body\u2019 content. By appropriately displaying this, your users will be able to know which pieces of content you want them to read immediately. This also links back to pairing the appropriate fonts and utilising the best typography for your brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
