Russian term
графический ход
Russian to English
Art/Literary
Printing & Publishing
This is at the beginning of a section explaining how to start designing a typeface. Context:
"У каждого шрифтовика свои приемы, но почти все начинают с того, что можно назвать шрифтовой идеей.
Это графический ход, найденный для одного-двух знаков."
I think I know what it's trying to say, but I just can't find the right words in English.
Any suggestions gratefully received :)

graphic device
As a native English speaker, "graphic device" sounds good to my ears as it is similar to "literary device". It sounds quite neutral and is basically a synonym for "прием" in Russian.
Example sentence:
When designing for iPad try to think of it as a wayfinding project where every graphic device serves a functional purpose.
