“Design principles are the fundamental ideas and elements that can be applied to achieve successful design.”

Freelance web, graphic, and UI designer Abhishek Garg has illustrated five principles of design but with a visual twist. He’s opted for a typographic approach using free Google Fonts.

In his project ‘5 Google Fonts Trends and Combinations’, the Mumbai-based creative covers the concepts: white space; symmetry; contrast; rule of thirds; alignment. Garg offers detailed font formatting information for each style and reveals how it can be achieved.

View his work below and visit the project page for detailed explanations on each principle. Click the visuals to view their enlarged versions.
