A few interesting facts on focus and emphasis.

| Draping course: Emphasis on the chairs |
According to Anabel Damstrom emphasis is:
"SOMETHING THAT IS SINGLED OUT OR MADE MORE PROMINENT HAS EMPHASIS. AN ELEMENT OF A DESIGN THAT DOMINATES OR BECOMES THE CENTER OF INTEREST HAS EMPHASIS." (BEAR FOCUS ON THIS • EMPHASIS AND THE PRINCIPLES AND ELEMENTS OF DESIGN) THE GOAL OF EMPHASIS IS TO DRAW MORE ATTENTION TO AN ELEMENT THAN IT WOULD HAVE ON ITS OWN. THE RANGE OF EMPHASIS IS BASED IN CONTRAST. THE GREATER THE CONTRAST ONE ELEMENT HAS TO THE SURROUNDING ELEMENTS, THE GREATER THE EMPHASIS (PORTER).
According to Flyeschool the difference between Emphasis and Focal point: "Emphasis is created by visually reinforcing something we want the viewer to pay attention to. Focal points are areas of interest the viewer's eyes skip to." SOMETIME THE EMPHASIS CAN ALSO BE THE FOCUS!

According to the blog of Dawn Smith - Elements of design in Party Decor:
"Emphasis is the stressing element of your party design. One way of achieving emphasis is by creating a focal point. Your party table should ideally only have one, but it can't just be there all alone, everything else should support it. It can be the largest, brightest, or most complex part of the whole. It gets special attention because it stands out. The clemetines on this photo is an excellent sample."

The challenge is - how do we bring in emphasis on draping. By
doing the unexpected! A few examples of Mandap draping with a emphasis on something
special.
Normally you will put the emphasis on a specific theme, color or
something of value to you like a photograph or art piece. In Indian weddings
the emphasis is a lot on the seats for the bride and groom and ultimately the
emphasis will be on the bride and groom.
