Design Elementary




Most people have tried to do dozens of designs till now, and many of these are simply "not that good". But these kinds of designs rarely inspire anything, especially in this new age of visual perfection.


The most effective designers have highly understandable visual presentations that furnishes their works instead of describing them.


The problem is not us in designing but how to design. Designers study basics in the schools which aids them to design. As of now, I think you already have searched many articles that can help you. It is quite difficult as for a non designer to know these basics. Maybe I can help you in these issue.


Here are some basics which designers use. I have organised it in my way to make these easy for you guys to understand. Hope it helps 😃


There are several segments which helps a design to achieve perfection. I can guess that you have done your amount of research. Such as, elements of design, principles of design etc are quite common things but there are some features that gets neglected since designers find these term quite normal. So there always a gap left in understanding.



They are, 

  • Elements of Design
  • Principles of Design
  • Secrets of Design
  • Typography
  • Framing
  • Randomness





I will try my best to help you.So, stay with me as I explain all these in details. All rights reserved.

How to draw a Architectural plan

The plan is a drawing of the outline and partitions of a building as you would see them if the building were cut in a certain height. A basic geometrical shape or collection of shapes or organic shapes are basically implemented to make an architectural plan. There are many techniques that can be applied to shape out a plan.  There is however my method of finalizing the plan from the general concept, What I use,   Concept + Functions = Room Sizes  Room sizes + Room numbers = Area  Total areas into floor plans. The bubble diagram approach is an effective method of establishing the overall design concept. The inside and outside design is determined by the size and relationship of the areas.                        STEP 1:   In this demonstration I have selected a 10x10 grid. You can chose any grid what ever suits you. Then i selected the number of grid boxes i need to ...
