Alignment in web
design means everything from the bigger elements, such as the header, content,
navigation, and footer, to the inside elements, like paragraphs, ads, text
headers, and images.
A design with poor
alignment is a little like a poorly organized desk.
Alignment is vitally
important in print graphic design because it:
- Allows you to arrange elements in a way that matches how people naturally scan the page
- Helps balance your image so that it’s visually appealing
- Creates a visual connection between related elements
