Design tips
Form following function
Form following function is a well established design principle
The aesthetic should be based upon the intended function.
For example, this block of flats is intended to provide safe, low-cost living in a densely populated area.
As a result it is built upwards, made from strong weather resistant material

Functions of a presentation

Simultaneous use of speech, images and text can increase the cognitive load on your audience. Make sure that your audience focus on listening to your presentation rather than reading it; slides are there to benefit your audience and not act as a script.
Minimise use of text, be concise and use images which complement and reinforce your points rather than distract from your speech. If you need to use a lot of text then consider moving it onto a hand-out sheet.

Presentation tips
- Balance text, speech and images
- Summarise key points with text
- Use images to support your ideas
- Put detailed information onto a handout
Using concise sentences to emphasize key points is a great way to reinforce your message.
However, using a separate slide for a single key point allows your slides to provide more emphasis and become more visually expressive.

Balance text, speech and images
Too much text and detailed images, combined with speech will cause cognitive overload for your audience.
The details of your presentation should come across in your speech
Each slide should be used to clearly communicate and accentuate your by message by highlighting a key point with text and illustrating this with an appropriate and relevant image.

Summarise key points with text

Speaker is clearly using his slide as a script.
Your audience can read faster than you can talk so this is never a good idea.

Use images to support your ideas
Use high quality images which illustrate your message and support your text.
Visual content which is difficult to see or understand in relation to your message can confuse your audience.

Communicate to the back row
Consider the size of your audience and room you will be presenting to.
Text and images on slides should be readable for the person sat in the back row.

Use large text and high-quality images
Use large text and clear images to communicate your message. Billboards are an excellent example which use these methods to communicate.

Text on images
Use contrast to make your text stand out
Use contrast and colour to make your text stand out from a dark or light background.

Use a solid background colour to make text readable on textures
A solid colour background behind text can make it easier to read on complex textures or colourful images.
