Summary/Abstract: The aesthetic dimension in ecological advertising plays a crucial role in establishing an emotional connection between the audience and environmental issues, stimulating involvement and commitment to conservation efforts. The aesthetic function embedded in ecological advertising serves as a foundation for raising awareness and mobilizing the public regarding environmental issues. This aesthetic approach fosters deep emotional connections, motivating active involvement in environmental initiatives and significantly contributing to leaving a lasting impression and focusing attention on the ecological message conveyed. The use of visually captivating imagery, including landscapes and vibrant colors, grabs attention and sparks curiosity among viewers. Their distinctive style, together with origindesign elements, elevates them to an artistic level, enriching their impact and resonance. Ecological advertising draws inspiration from diverse aesthetic influences, similar to those found in fine art, with deliberate reinterpretations and realignments to serve its purpose. Adherence to fundamental design principles ensures impactful and memorable ecological advertising campaigns. By presenting aesthetic means, namely disturbing aspects of environmental degradation, ecological ads can evoke a strong emotional response among the audience, prompting them to take action or support initiatives for nature conservation. However, it is essential for such imagery to be used judiciously and accompanied by messages/texts that provide solutions or inspire hope and positive action in the face of environmental issues. We will observe how techniques like unity, harmony, and balance, along with intentional emphasis and contrast, enhance the effectiveness of ecological advertising in conveying its message to the public.
