The Basic Principles of Illustration Style
  • The presence of lines
    Illustrations should contain thin lines that are not too bold, but also not too nuanced; they should also convey understatement, lightness and dynamism.
  • New classic
    Style "new" classic re-read with a modern look. The task is to convey a combination of new and old, which has been used in design for more than one century.
  • Color palette
    Do not use bright, open colors, add a little complex tone, however, to make it look fresh and stylish.
  • Availability of textures
    The use of large graphic textures on backgrounds, in parts of the illustration. The cage is like a reference to school.
