The large number Eleven positioned diagonally on the image draws the viewer&#8217;s eyes in first. It is bright red and the only color in an otherwise monochrome poster. The number eleven then moves your focus to the black silhouettes at the top. These figures are set apart from the completely white background. The use of contrast in color, tone, and even size allows the poster to pop giving it clear readability.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M-647x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33\" width=\"423\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M-647x1024.jpg 647w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M-190x300.jpg 190w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M-768x1215.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M-971x1536.jpg 971w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13240\/2021\/09\/YSOA_Spring2019_181203-4-M.jpg 1012w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 423px) 100vw, 423px\" \/><figcaption>This 2019 Yale Architecture poster heavily uses the visual design principal alignment.

The lady looking over her shoulder holding the cognac is the figure. She is the focus of the illustration, while the trees and underbrush surrounding her are the background elements. Even though the foliage isn\u2019t the focus of the poster it adds movement, drawing the viewer\u2019s eye around the image in an \u2018S\u2019 shape balancing out the composition. This is a great example of figure and ground as even though the figure is the focus of the advertisement to sell the cognac, the ground element is of almost equal importance to make a visually appealing and successful advertisement.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13118,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-6"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31\/revisions\/36"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/rachelliddle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
