You have a message you want to communicate. How do you “send” it and attract attention?
If you create a poster; type a letter; create a logo, a magazine ad, or a CD cover; you are using graphic design, a form of visual communication.
Customers are becoming more visually sophisticated. Graphic design gives your organization a professional look that makes a lasting impression.
Graphic design is the process of communicating visually using typography and images to present information. Graphic design practice embraces a range of cognitive skills, aesthetics and crafts, including typography, visual arts and page layout. Like other forms of design, graphic design often refers to both the process (designing) by which the communication is created and the products (designs) which are generated.
Graphic Designers create, choose, and organize these elements—typography, images, and the so-called “white space” around them—to communicate a message. Graphic design is a part of your daily life. From humble things like gum wrappers to huge things like billboards to the T-shirt you’re wearing.
Graphic design informs, persuades, organizes, stimulates, locates, identifies, attracts attention and provides pleasure. |
