Applying Visual Design Principles to Slide Layouts
I created this visual design project to demonstrate 6 graphic design principles: Color, Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, Balance, and Style (C-CRABS) that can be applied to improve the look and feel of several PowerPoint slide designs. In each of the four sample slides, below, a before and after image is provided with a description of how I applied each principle to revise the slide design.
An overview of this project is provided below.
Before and After: Applying Visual Design Principles
For each of the four visual design samples in the collapsible tabs (﹢) below, click the slide arrows (
) to view the Before and After versions of the slides. Each tab provides a critique of the Before slide and the improvements applied to the After slides.
