5 clever💪 design ideas for beginners🎯.

1. Use Contrast
Contrast can make a design pop and draw attention to specific elements. Experiment with contrasting colors, shapes, and sizes to create visually appealing designs. For example, pairing a bold, sans-serif font with a delicate script font can create a striking contrast.

2. Keep it Simple
Simplicity is key in design. Start with a simple layout and add elements gradually as needed. Avoid cluttering your design with too many elements or too much text. White space can be just as important as the elements on the page.

3. Play with Typography
Typography can make or break a design. Experiment with different fonts and font sizes to create a hierarchy of information. Use typography to convey emotion and tone, and to guide the viewer's eye through the design.

4. Use Grids
Grids are a helpful tool for organizing design elements and creating a sense of balance and harmony. Start by dividing your design into a grid and use the grid lines to align elements and create a consistent structure.

5. Incorporate Images
Images can add visual interest and emotion to a design. Use high-quality, relevant images that complement the message of the design. Consider using images as backgrounds or incorporating them into the layout of the design.
