Rule Of Thirds: The Composition Rules

If you want to improve the design of your reports and make them more visually appealing for your audience, then you need to learn about the rule of thirds. This principle is an effective way to create a balanced composition in your Power BI reports that will capture your viewers’ attention and make it easier for them to follow and understand the story you’re presenting.

So, what exactly is the rule of thirds? It's a technique in data storytelling that involves dividing the frame into nine boxes by drawing two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. The goal is to align the points of interest in your report along these lines or where they intersect to create a more pleasing and balanced composition.

By applying this principle to your report design, you can ensure that each visual element is positioned in a way that highlights its importance and significance, making it easier for your audience to understand and interpret the data you are presenting.
