2.  White space is always occurring in a
design from the moment you open up a
blank document, the design has begun
with white space.

3.  There are two types of white space the
first is undefined white space, which is
what you get when you open a new
document.
 The second white space is active white
space, which occurs when an object is
placed in undefined white space.

4.  White space allows 4 things:
 Rhythm- allows the reader to easily engage the
design without being confronted with too many
graphics or types.
 Unity- it is responsible for all the elements in design
being holistic and in agreement with each other.
 Legibility/Readability- how easily shapes of letters
can be distinguished usually refers to larger sizes
while readability refers to how easily type can be
read.
 Balance- refers to the weight of a design based on
the objects or elements of the design.

5.  It can be used anywhere.
 web/graphic design- white space is
crucial for legibility/readability.
 illustrations and abstract artwork- there is
no rule for how it is used.
 photography- it is used when you print
out pictures say for a magazine.
