The principle of emphasis in interior design is the process of creating focus within a designated space. Added pieces in a space that would draw the eye are a large painting, antique furniture, or an opulent chandelier. Once the focal point is chosen, the rest of the design can work around it.

Emphasis is the principle of art that helps the audience put the story of a painting together in their own minds. Any object or area of emphasis is called a focal point. The focal point is meant to be the part of an artwork to which the viewer’s eyes are first attracted.

Consider creating your own focal point

• Accent walls: Accent walls have always been a popular option for a focal point.
• Artwork: A statement piece of artwork or mirror can carry a room by itself.
• Backsplashes: Kitchens and bathrooms tend to have their own standards for focal points.

Harmony is the sense that all of the elements of your design fit together. They may fit the same theme, aesthetic style or mood. Unity refers to the repetition of particular elements throughout your design — whether they’re colors, shapes or materials — to pull the look together.

Unity is identified in three ways: compositional unity, conceptual unity, and gestalt unity. Variety is an opposing principle that supports and contrasts with unity by introducing dissimilar elements and ideas.

Unity is being in harmony or one in spirit. An example of unity is a bride and groom both lighting a single candle at the same time with each of their candles. The quality of being one in spirit, sentiment, purpose, etc.; harmony; agreement; concord; uniformity.

G E S T A L T. UNITY Unity expresses the idea that things belong together. Harmony is another word that might be used in place of unity.

The most common definition of unity is a state of being undivided or oneness. “Hear O Israel, the Lord your God is one Lord,” Deuteronomy 6:4. Because God is one, one set of laws was to apply to both Israel and foreigners, (Numbers 15:16).

How to Promote Unity in a Divided Church

1. Encourage Each Other. Ephesians 4:29, “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.”
2. Be Prayerful.
3. Remember Whom We Represent.

The key to overcoming divisions or factions is unity, humility, love, and the fear of God. Unity or oneness also activates the power of God to operate in the human family and in the body of Christ (Acts 4:31). As the body of Christ, we can and should accomplish much in the service of winning more souls for Christ.
