4• Color Contrast This is the most common and most misused. For example: • White text on a yellow background? Hard to read. • White text on black? High visibility. Pro Tip: Use tools like WCAG contrast checkers to ensure accessibility!

5• Size Contrast Make the important things bigger. Headlines, CTAs, key visuals they should be larger than secondary information. This instantly tells the brain, “Look here first.” Hierarchy creates flow. #UIUXDesign #WebDesign

6• Shape and Form Contrast Use different shapes to set elements apart. A circle in a sea of squares gets attention. This is great for icons, logos, or animating key messages in motion design.

7• Spacing (White Space) Contrast Give elements room to breathe. Crowded designs make everything compete for attention. Generous spacing makes the important stuff shine. Silence in music is as important as sound same goes for space in design.

8• Typographic Contrast Combine fonts wisely. Mix serif with sans serif, bold with light, large with small but not too much. Contrast in type improves readability and hierarchy. Use 2–3 fonts max to avoid clutter.
