Graphic Design Do’s and Don’ts for Beginners: Part 2

Don’ts 
Ignore the colour chart
Colour charts have basic rules that should not be ignored. If you use the wrong colours, your design will look bad. Some colours look great when combined with their own shade, for example, navy blue with light blue. This colour scheme is often called monochromatic. If you want to create a design with contrasting colours, you can use two opposite colours on the colour chart.

Too much text
Text is indeed one of the elements in graphic design. But sometimes in a design, we find too much text. It will make the design unaesthetic because the composition of the text is too much and dominates. It will be better if you focus more on the image in the design.

Wrong choice of font
The font style can affect people's perceptions. The font style in a design affects the psychology of each person, especially if you choose a font style that has too many shapes and is difficult to read. Besides shapes, you also have to pay attention to size and level of formality. Arial, Calibri, Garamond, Helvetica are examples of font styles that can make a design look nicer and more formal.
