Balance & Symmetry


I enjoyed reading through this chapter and seeing visual representations of these principals. I realized through reading this that I tended to have a lot of symmetrical balance and a mostly evenly distributed visual weight in a lot of my abstract drawings in the past. Along with those, I saw a lot of represented ideals that I utilize regularly in my photography but I never realized were such a huge part of design, such as isolation and centricity and eccentricity.

A quote I loved from this chapter:
“Excessive unity can be monotonous, while excessive variety can be chaotic.” Stewart 67.
