Now we will continue from design shape and positioning the first line with right design line proportions.
I have referred to the mark with which you are making visual experiments as a line. Now, let us develop the line and explore its possibilities. You have already had some experience of placing the line that represents the heading in a number of positions within your chosen shape. You can now begin to expand and contract the proportions of your line to see how much of the shape you wish it to occupy.

The purpose of this step is to make a decision on the importance and prominence of this feature in your design. Pay particular attention to the space you are left with. Balance the space with the weight of the line, leaving more white space at the top, bottom, or sides. You will also begin to realize that your earlier creative decision on the position of the line may no longer be relevant, since your creative judgment will be influenced once again by the change in the size of the elements of the line. A heavier line may feel better m one particular position within the space, whereas a slimmer line may naturally gravitate toward another position.

I would like you to be careful, when deciding on the width and weight of your line, to be fairly accurate in representing its volume as you change the overall proportions. In other words, a thin, long line, when shortened, would become tatter.
