Balance

 A work of art possesses balance

 It is visual or actual weights or masses “including color” are distributed in
such a way that they achieve harmony
 Balance gives us a feeling of stability and rest
Example: the body is well balanced that’s why it is possible for a person to
stand erect.

 Balance is also presented in well -arranged room, flower arrangements and

in the color costumes of people.
 In food technology we used balance of color in plating because color can
help to set the mood of the tabletop and truly show to your guests the
personality of your cuisine.

Balance may either be formal or informal

Formal Balance
 also known as symmetrical balance, is an artistic idea in which both sides of
the composition have equal weight and importance. Symmetrical balance
inspires ideas of formality and elegance (it's also known as formal balance).
 A wedding invitation is an excellent example of a design that should be
proportionally balanced.

Informal Balance
  Informal balance refers to an arrangement in which the elements are not
symmetrically arranged, but still appear balanced and stable.
 An arrangement in which the pieces are not symmetrically organized. appear
balanced and stable is referred to as informal balance.
 Informal balance is generally used, to attract the attention of observer and set
them thinking about the object under observation.

Rhythm
 The regular repetition of sensory impressive, a series of units repeated one
after another produces rhythmic movement. Rhythmical patterns help the
eye to move easily from one part of the room to another or from one part of
a design to another.
 Therefore, rhythm helps us to create harmony in a design or room. It is used
as the most effective may of creating aesthetic unity in prose, music, dance,
painting, architecture and sculpture.
 in relation to the beat of a song or piece. Rhythms are rarely heard on their
own unless they're played by non-pitched percussion, but they're an essential
component of melody.

Emphasis
 means giving the proper importance to parts or to the whole. One part of
design in the room is emphasized and the rest are subordinated.
 So, you can imagine the confusion you will experience if all the object in a
room are of the same size.
 Color is also used to create emphasis. The contrast of colors can be used to
produce a center of interest.
 In food technology we used complementary colors is colors that are on the
opposite side of the color wheel. These colors do not just complement each
other, but rather enhance or accentuate each other by creating a contrast.
