The four basic principles for design are creativity, brightness, filtering and uniqueness.

Applying proximity will connect items, indicate a relationship and organize the features of a design.

# data[].attributes.body
The principle of proximity states that all items be grouped together for indicating a relationship.

Right or left alignment strengthens the layout better than centered alignment.

# data[].attributes.body
A professional indent for a document is about the size of em.

# data[].attributes.body
The key to excellent alignment is a strong line that organizes items for better connection and communication.

# data[].attributes.body
You must NEVER EVER break the rules to professional designing.

# data[].attributes.body
We often do not use repetition in our designing.

# data[].attributes.body
Bold typefaces, light typefaces, bullets, indents, spacing and alignments are examples of repeated items.

# data[].attributes.body
The principle of contrast states that different items in a design be contrasted for the viewer to grab interest.

# data[].attributes.body
Contrast makes designs appear disorganized.

# data[].attributes.body
For professional designing, it is recommended that you do not use Times New Roman, Arial and Helvetica.

# data[].attributes.body
The primary colors of the color wheel are green, purple and orange, while the secondary colors are yellow, red and blue.

# data[].attributes.body

The standard dimensions for a business envelope are 9.5 x 4.125 centimeters.

# data[].attributes.body
The first paragraph in any report or design should not have an indent.

# data[].attributes.body
For a professional advertisement, white space is required rather than an overload of information.

# data[].attributes.body
The quotation marks that usually appear when you type are wrong quotation marks.

# data[].attributes.body
The code Alt 0150 on a PC will type out an em dash.

# data[].attributes.body
You should never use the underline button for emphasis in text.

# data[].attributes.body
Widows and orphans are typographic terms about major mistakes in text.

# data[].attributes.body
Concord is an absolutely useless idea that should be avoided when designing.

# data[].attributes.body
The six groups of typefaces mentioned in the book are Oldstyle, Modern, Slab serif, Sans serif, Script and Decorative.

# data[].attributes.body
The six types of contrast are size, weight, structure, form, direction and bordering.

# data[].attributes.body
Words that are all caps are easier to be read than words with no caps.

# data[].attributes.body
You should start with the focal point when you are designing.

# data[].attributes.body
The font Wingdings is consisted of dingbats, which are small ornaments near or within text.

# data[].attributes.body
The Non-Designer's Design Book was meant for non-designers and amateurs to improve in their designing skills.

# data[].attributes.body
False. The four basic principles for designing are proximity, alignment, repetition and contrast.

# data[].attributes.body
True. Applying proximity will do all of those things, so make sure you apply it!

# data[].attributes.body
False. You should not group all items in a design together because it would cause disorganization and a lack of communication. However, you shouldn't separate all items in a design either, since it would then be unable to indicate the relationship between certain items. Therefore, you should only group items that are related to each other.

# data[].attributes.body
True. Right or left alignment has a straighter edge, which is what greatly strengthens the layout of a design,

# data[].attributes.body
True. Though tab indents are definitely more used, em indents indicate new paragraphs yet maintain the strength of alignment.

# data[].attributes.body
True. A strong line is essential for alignment because it prevents any randomness or disorganization.

# data[].attributes.body
Surprisingly, false. Some rules are made to be broken, and you can break them only if you know what they mean. Still, make sure you keep the rules as much as possible, since rules are also made to be kept.

# data[].attributes.body
False. Though we may be unaware, we actually use repetition frequently by using the same colors, elements and formatting.

# data[].attributes.body
True. All of the listed items are excellent examples that can be repeated in a design.

# data[].attributes.body
True. However, you shouldn't overly use this principle because it would then make the principle of repetition pointless.

# data[].attributes.body
False. Instead, contrast makes designs more eye-catchy and dramatic!

# data[].attributes.body
True. The listed fonts are too weak and common for emphasis in a design.

# data[].attributes.body
False. It is the other way round; yellow, red and blue are the primary colors, while green, purple and orange are the secondary colors.

# data[].attributes.body
False. Complementary colors work extremely well in designs as exact opposites.

# data[].attributes.body
True. CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and a Key color usually considered to be black.

# data[].attributes.body
False. A vertical layout is what you should use when there is so much information in a business card.

# data[].attributes.body
False. The dimensions for a business envelope are 9.5 x 4.125 inches, not centimeters.

# data[].attributes.body
True. Since you can see that the first paragraph is the first paragraph, an indent shouldn't be required for indication.

# data[].attributes.body
True. A professional advertisement with more white space and simplicity is more attractive to readers.

# data[].attributes.body
True. Real quotation marks actually appear like sixes and nines.

# data[].attributes.body
False. The code Alt 0151 on a PC will type out an em dash. The code Alt 0150 will type out an en dash instead.

# data[].attributes.body
True. The underline button features underlines that are amateur-looking in text. Therefore, the bold button or the italic button is recommended for emphasis in text instead.

# data[].attributes.body
True. A widow is the last line of a paragraph that has fewer than seven characters. Meanwhile, an orphan is the last line of a paragraph that is located on another page alone.

# data[].attributes.body
False. A concord is a useful idea that can show the text as serious, formal or informative. The idea in design that should be avoided instead is a conflict.

# data[].attributes.body
True. The mentioned types are the six types of typefaces mentioned in The Non-Designer's Design Book.

# data[].attributes.body
False. The six types of contrast are size, weight, structure, form, direction and color.

# data[].attributes.body
False. Words with all caps are harder to read because they have the same rectangular form.

# data[].attributes.body
True. Starting with the focal point will help you decide how to design the rest of the page or design.

# data[].attributes.body
True. For this reason, you should not use Wingdings for typing out reports or essays!

# data[].attributes.body
Absolutely true! Therefore, if you haven't read the book already, you should go read it right now! :)
