Unity

Overall Unity (defined as when the viewer can"grasp the essence of the 'big picture' without being distracted by the individual elements of design")

Proximity ("objects that are more likely to be perceived as related when they are positioned close together")

Kerning and Leading

Two important aspects of designing are kerning and leading. To kern is to adjust the gap between letters (or other characters) in text. Leading is the distance between the two baselines of rows of text; essentially it is just line spacing. These are both essential because without them, text is extremely difficult to read. Here are two examples of terrible kerning:

Visual Hierarchy

A page consisting of simply one huge column of uniform and equally spaced text fails to interest and entertain the viewer as successfully as a page with visual hierarchy does. Visual hierarchy is essentially the order that the viewer processes the content on a page. It sets apart words, phrases, and paragraphs so that the content can be easily processed by its viewers. Alignment, color, images, headers, etc. add emphasis to visual hierarchy, making the important information more clear and obvious while the less essential information becomes smaller and less impactful. USA Today's website contains interesting visual hierarchy. This makes it a joy to use because not only is it aesthetically pleasing but also the content flows easily and clearly.
