Adaptation of Design Principles Within METU




After five weeks of learning design principles and designing with using them, we found examples of places where these principles were applied in school.


1. Repetition and Variation

First, we think about repetition and variation in this class. Repetition includes similarities but not like pattern and there should be a meaningful relationship and organization between design elements. Also variation can be used for making this organization more complex.

The windows and the squares on the ceiling continue to repeat.
Sport Center
The columns are repeating themselves.

Contrast can be achieved with different features such as shape, size, color, location and so on in design. If an element that emerges from these differences catches more attention, there is dominance there. 

2. Dominance and Contrast

MM Building
The building on the left side is more dominant because of its length.
KKM
The entrance of the building take the attention because of its size and location.


 3. Hierarchy

 "Hierarchy is an organization of items into different levels of relative importance. A hierarchical organization prioritizes some elements over the others. Hierarchy in design is created by adjusting the visual weights of elements." ARCH 111

 4.Rhythm

Rhythm is created by repetition of one or more design elements in a organization with feeling of movement.
