AR Visual Design Techniques | Augmented Reality Design Principles | Adobe Creative Cloud

Learn Augmented Reality Design Principles in this Adobe Aero series led by artist Heather Dunaway Smith.

Augmented Reality Visual Design:
Techniques & best practices for creating successful visual designs in augmented reality.

AR Visual Design Techniques:
Learn how to direct the eye in 3D space using visual design principles.

What you learned:
• How to use design principles when designing spatial experiences: There is a wealth of preexisting visual design knowledge that we can leverage to create more successful AR experiences. The key is to create clear visual hierarchies, so your participant always knows where to look.
• Contrast: One of the primary tools in your arsenal is contrast. It could be contrast in color, value, shape, scale, etc.
• Negative Space: Negative space is another way of creating visual contrast. When you surround something with nothing, you can’t help but look at the something in the middle of it all.
• Movement: Movement is another powerful way to use contrast in 3d space.
• Project Walk-Through: I walked through a recent project of mine to illustrate how layering these visual design techniques can create clearer spatial experiences.
