Across
- 3. the study of how specific hues influence human emotion, behavior, and brand perception
- 4. using visual elements to create a clear focal point and guide the viewer's attention to the most important part of a composition
- 6. the intentional repetition of visual elements—such as lines, colors, shapes, and spaces—to create a sense of organized movement and guide the viewer's ey
- 8. the deliberate placement of opposite or different visual elements next to each other to create a focal point, establish hierarchy, and guide the viewer's attention
- 11. a core principle involving a gradual, step-by-step change in a design element—such as color, size, shape, or texture—rather than a sudden shift
- 13. a core principle that uses different visual elements to break monotony, hold attention, and add excitement to a composition
- 14. the area around, between, above, below, or within the elements of a composition
Down
- 1. the relative lightness or darkness of an element

- 5. a three-dimensional object or the illusion of three-dimensional depth, volume, and mass
- 7. the visually satisfying effect of combining similar, related, or complementary elements to create a sense of peace, order, and completeness
- 9. Balance in design is the equal distribution of visual weight—such as color, size, shape, and texture—across a composition so that no single area overpowers the rest
- 10. a continuous mark or a visual path that connects two or more points in space
- 12. a two-dimensional area defined by boundaries like lines, colors, or negative space
