What is the beauty of symmetry about? The characteristics of layout design!

The beauty of symmetry originates from nature and can be seen everywhere in daily life. The reason why symmetry is beautiful is the nature of visual beauty. A little attention to the things around us, we will find that we live in a world full of symmetry. People's thoughts on "symmetrical beauty" can be traced back to the initial stage of human civilization. As early as in the ancient Greek period, philosophers on the understanding of beauty in the art of symmetry. For example, Aristotle believed that "beauty lies in order, symmetry, and clarity", and Pythagoras said that "the beauty of the line and all other beautiful shapes must have symmetrical forms" and so on. This reflects that human beings, consciously or unconsciously, measure works of art by the prevalent aesthetic habit of pursuing symmetry. The Chinese have always pursued the beauty of symmetry in their creations, and it seems that we can see symmetrical elements in many Chinese cultural treasures, such as architecture, painting, poetry, porcelain, seals, calligraphy, etc. All of them emphasize symmetry, reflecting the unique Chinese concept of balance between yin and yang. The ancient Chinese transformed the spiritual beauty of harmony and balance into every specific form of life, and over time, it evolved into a Chinese symmetrical beauty, giving people a sense of solemnity, atmosphere and harmony, which has become the unique aesthetics of life for the Chinese. Advantages of symmetrical composition "symmetrical composition" is to divide the page into two parts, through the layout of the design elements so that the picture as a whole presents a symmetrical structure, has a strong sense of order, gives a person a quiet, rigorous and formal feelings, presenting a harmonious, stable, classic temperament. Balance and stability symmetry creates balance, balance creates the beauty of harmony and stability, people through the pursuit of visual balance in the picture, so as to obtain the pleasure and satisfaction of the soul. Rigorous order symmetrical composition can create a rigorous sense of order, giving people a neat and serious, organized visual feeling. Classic perfect symmetry visual balance and harmony can give people a solemn and generous sense of beauty, reflecting the pursuit of perfection and peace of mind, so that the layout has a classic temperament. Symmetrical composition of the form of symmetry center symmetry will be placed in the graphics and text information on the screen axis, using the center of the alignment of the layout form, showing a symmetrical state: or to the screen axis as the center, the visual elements are distributed in the screen on the left and right sides of the elements are almost the same size and shape, presenting a balanced, stable state. Upper and lower symmetry divides the layout into two, forming equal upper and lower parts, presenting a symmetrical and balanced visual effect. Left-right symmetry divides the layout into two parts, left and right 1:1, through the layout of the design elements to make the picture as a whole presents a balanced and stable character. Diagonal symmetry information is distributed at both ends of the diagonal line, echoing each other, presenting a symmetrical and balanced state of the diagonal, which not only has the order and neatness of symmetry, but also breaks the dullness and makes the layout vivid and lively. Mixed symmetry of the same layout can be used at the same time a variety of symmetry. In this case, the graphic is placed on the central axis, and the layout as a whole presents a state of central symmetry, while other information is placed in the upper left and lower right corners, presenting a state of diagonal symmetry and balance: in this case, the text is centered and placed on the central axis, and the graphic is placed in the upper left and lower right corners, and the layout uses two symmetry modes of central and diagonal symmetry: in this case, the overall presentation of the left-right symmetry, but in the local graphics and text, central symmetry is used, which can also be used in a variety of symmetry modes. The case as a whole presents a left-right symmetrical state, but in the local graphics and text, the use of central symmetry, can also present a rich visual effect: the flexible use of symmetry is a more rigorous and standardized way of composition, but in order to avoid the layout of the stagnant, can be used through a variety of design techniques, cleverly broken symmetry of the composition of the singularity and the sense of dullness. Text to break the use of text to link up the two spaces, breaking the symmetrical composition of the layout of the dull feeling. Elemental linking uses graphics, color blocks and other elements to link the space, so that the two spaces are connected, with rich visual effects and a good sense of design. Scene fusion recreates the scene, weakens the partition of space, makes the symmetrical composition without obvious division line, and makes the picture more dynamic and beautiful. The use of double exposure weakens the partition of space and breaks through the space constraints, making the picture more creative. Summary: 1, symmetry is the most common form of beauty in nature, is widely used in a variety of designs; 2, commonly used symmetrical composition forms are central symmetry, up and down symmetry, left and right symmetry and diagonal symmetry, the same layout can also be used at the same time in a variety of symmetrical ways; 3, symmetry is a more rigorous and standardized way of composition, you can break the picture through the text, elements of the series of elements and the fusion of space and other design techniques, skillfully break the symmetry composition. Symmetrical composition of the singularity and dullness, but also to make the picture has a rich visual effect and a good sense of design.
