Manipulating Artistic Elements
Various types of lines create different
impressions.
For example, straight lines suggest
stiffness and control while curving lines
suggest freedom and movement.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Display colors should contrast
with the surrounding colors to
make the display stand out.
 The standard color wheel
illustrates the relationships
among colors.

Manipulating Artistic Elements

Complementary
colors are found
opposite each
other on the color
wheel and are
used to create
high contrast.
Manipulating Artistic Elements

Adjacent colors,
also called
analogous colors,
are located next
to each other on
the color wheel
and share the
same undertones.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Triadic colors involve three
colors equally spaced on the
color wheel, such as red, yellow,
and blue.
Triadic color harmony creates
vivid and contrasting color
schemes.
Effective displays use color
groupings to create visual calm
or excitement.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Shape refers to the physical appearance, or
outline, of a display. Some of the shapes that
display units may resemble include:
• Squares
• Cubes
• Circles
• Triangles
Displays that have little or no distinct shape are
called mass displays.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Effective displays have direction, which is
a smooth visual flow from one part of the
display to another.
They should also have a focal point, an
area in the display that attracts attention
first, above all else.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Texture is the look of the surfaces in a
display. The contrast between the textures
used in a display creates visual interest.
Proportion refers to the relationship
between and among objects in a display.
Props, graphics, and signs should be in
proportion to the merchandise; they should
not dominate the display.
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Manipulating Artistic Elements
Formal balance in a display happens
when items of similar size are grouped
together, or they are placed in opposite
positions to balance one another out.
Informal balance occurs when small
items are grouped with a large item.

Manipulating Artistic Elements
Motion is playing an increasingly
important role in display design.
Animation can be achieved through
the use of motorized fixtures, props,
and mannequins.
Proper lighting is critical to
attractive displays. It is recommended
that display lighting be two to five
times stronger than a store’s general
lighting.

Evaluating Completed Displays
Be sure to ask questions about your displays,
such as:
1. Do they enhance the store’s image, appeal to
customers, and promote the product in the best
possible way?
2. Was a theme creatively applied?
3. Were the color and signage appropriate?
4. Was the result pleasing?
Marketing Essentials Chapter 18, Section 18.2
Display maintenance
1. Displays should be checked daily for damage or
displacement caused by customer handling.
2. Missing merchandise should be replaced
immediately.
3. Lights should be checked periodically and
replaced as necessary.
4. Display units and props should be cleaned and
merchandise dusted on a regular basis.
