Insights

Emil Ruder

Negative spaces can form relationships with each other to shape the form.

Zuzana Licko

Revealing only a portion of a form, creates a different message within the context than if it was presented in its entirety.

Ellen Lupton

The layering of elements creates a frame in which the content is presented and understood.

Art Direction

By crafting the negative space to create an emphasis on what ‘could’ be there, the eye is invited to explore and question their assumptions. This encourages them to use the context around the space to fill in the blanks.
