Given What I have read VISUAL HIERARCHY is the most important thing to keep in mind when arranging type on a page.


Given what you read, what are the 4-5 specific guidelines or suggestions that you will most try to apply as you work with type on page or screen?


Given what I have read the 4-5 specific guidelines or suggestions that I will most try to follow and apply as I work with type on a page or screen, all of which help visual hierarchy. You must always keep in mind size, weight, color, leading, interline spacing and thats just some of the basic things to keep in mind. If you have an image on your page, size and location of that also determines the visual hierarchy.


Was there anything in the readings that surprised you? Anything that you think should have been in the readings but wasn’t?

I think everything and anything that should have been in the readings was. I had a good understanding of the term visual hierarchy to begin with, but this helped me build up a stronger sense of it.
