"Good design is obvious. Great design is transparent.”

10 Graphic Design Hacks That’ll Make You a PRO Designer Overnight!
Today, Anna Guerrero from Post Planner has you covered.

1. Pair Contrasting Fonts - A great rule of thumb is to choose fonts with high contrast. This will help the fonts balance each other out while still creating a feature in your design.

2. Match Colors Within Your Designs - Creating color harmony is one of the most effective ways to make your designs stand out.

3. Use Grids for your Images - Grids are a unique Canva tool which help you layout & edit your images to create professional effects.

4. Add Transparent Icons - Learning how to create backgrounds in Canva is where your creative juices really start to flow.

5. Illustrate Information with Shape and Icons - Shapes & icons are great tools to use when creating interesting & informative social media posts, or if you want to wow your boss during a company presentation.

6. Fix Color Issues in Your Images - One way to do this is to increase or decrease the saturation of an image. Saturation refers to the intensity of color in an image.

7. Crop Images to Maximize Copy Space
8. Choose Consistent Elements to Enhance Your Branding - Consistency is one of the important skills brands must master when using colors, fonts, logos & images.

9. Design Visual Assets for Social Media - Visual principles apply just as much to social media as they do everywhere else.

10. Design Themed Presentations - Great design can help your ideas stand out & read effectively -- improving your ability to become a great communicator.

“Thinking about design is hard, but not thinking about it can be disastrous.”

Thinking about design is probably one of the toughest challenges that a designer could face in his projects and perhaps even in his career. Despite these, we, designers, do our best to overcome this and not get swayed by analysis paralysis or in other words, get stuck in thinking. The worst part is not getting stuck but instead, it is not thinking about design that is truly horrific. I, as a designer, do my best to not get stuck in paralysis analysis nor in not thinking of any design whatsoever. It is important for me to be proactive rather than reactive to the situation. It’s quite the challenge but it is worth it.
