Visual harmony is the sense of balance and order created by the arrangement of elements within a composition. It is achieved when the elements of a composition are arranged in such a way that their relationships appear to be in balance. Negative space, also known as white space, is the area of a design that is left blank or unoccupied. This unoccupied area serves to create a sense of balance and harmony by allowing the other elements in the design to stand out and be more easily seen. Negative space can also be used to create visual interest and emphasize the focal point of a composition.
