Symmetry emphasizes harmony through repetition and mirrored elements, creating order and consistency, while Asymmetry uses contrast and varied visual weights to produce dynamic and engaging compositions. The key challenge for designers is determining when to employ symmetry or asymmetry effectively.

The visual quality of symmetry is the repetition of elements within an image along an axis, a path, or a center. The goal of visual balance is to make a design appear evenly distributed throughout the composition. On the other hand, anything that is not symmetrical is referred to as asymmetry.

Symmetrical balance (or Symmetry) means that the work of art is the same on one side as the other, a mirror image of itself, onboth sides of a center line. Asymmetrical balance (or Asymmetry) means that the two halves of the work of art are different, however, try to create balance.

Symmetry is the visual quality of repeating parts of an image across an axis, along a path or around a center. Asymmetry, on the other hand, refers to anything that isn’t symmetrical. Balance is the visual principle of making a design appear equally weighted throughout the composition.
