- 66. Applying them to specific design aspects/mediums Applying a principle to content or visual design might drive you to further tighten or clarify it. Finding them too broad or too restrictive. When principles stop making decisions easier, either because they seem too ambiguous or they’re so constraining that nothing works, you likely need to refine or even eliminate them.
