LINE Line is the visual direction of a design Line can be used to emphasize a pleasing element or disguise an undesirable one Different types of lines have different effects on design Vertical lines lead the eye up, adding height, formality, and strength to a design Horizontal lines lead the eye up to the left or right, suggesting informality and restfulness Curved lines add a softening, graceful effect to designs However, too many curved lines will look busy Diagonal lines suggest action, movement, and excitement. Diagonal lines can be overpowering and tiring, so should be used sparingly
