Unity
Unity within a well-composed design accomplishes two things
1) Unity creates a sense of order.
2) Unity also gives elements the appearance of completeness that they belong together

When unity is achieved:
The individual elements with in a composition will not be competing for attention.
The key theme will be communicated more clearly.
The design will evoke a sense of completeness and organization.
