Emphasis occurs when the focal point is emphasized. The designer thinks that the piece is the most important part of the design, and he/she draws attention to it.

Random rhythm occurs when the design elements are placed randomly, with no real pattern.

Regular Rhythm occurs when there are things grouped together, and they are all the same size, shape, or color.
