Rhythm - in design - can also be called Repetition, Movement, Energy. Rhythm allows your designs to develop an internal consistency that makes it easier for your customers to understand. Once the brain recognizes the pattern in the rhythm it can relax and understand the whole design. Repetition rarely occurs on its own and so it imbues a sense of order onto the design. And because of this, Rhythm attracts attention and prompts customers to investigate further.*
Rhythm refers to the way your eye moves throughout a picture. Some pictures move you throughout in a connected, flowing way much like a slow, stately rhythm in music. Other pictures move you from one place to another in an abrupt, dynamic way much like a fast, staccato rhythm in music will give you the impression of movement. Rhythm in art is created by the repetition of elements. Similarity of elements, or flowing, circular elements will give a more connected flowing rhythm to a picture, while jagged, or unrelated elements will create a more unsettling, dynamic picture. **

When we look at a drawing or painting, there’s always something that intrigues us more than anything else in that piece.
Why is that? This is a method used specifically by artists who wish to divert our attention towards the most.
The technical term for this technique is called ‘emphasis.’
Emphasis mainly serves as the focal point or main highlight of any artwork.
In graphic design, emphasis can be achieved by using colors, visual weight, size and page placement
that are naturally attractive to the human eye.
This is done by using various principles such as contrast, movement or repetition.
When it comes to text, the main words to focus on can be highlighted using bold or italic functions
of the Word Processing programs.
