No, blank spaces are not wasted spaces

Underestimated, scorned, or simply ignored, blank spaces don't always receive good press! Even so, it's an important part of designing and delivering information.

In a page, blank spaces strengthen readability, help prioritize your content and even play a role in your brand positioning. As we saw before, everything is related to this famous cognitive load. The presence of blank or empty spaces helps us remain focused on precise information.

So keep these words from Jan Tschichold in mind (German typographer and designer), "blank space should be considered as an active item, not a passive background."
