What Is Graphic Design?
This is my entry for the What is Graphic Design Poster Competition. My idea behind this poster is that graphic design is whatever we want it to be. Designers are responsible for defining what is graphic design with our use of color, typography, layout, and when necessary, a visual element. My design conveys this idea through a simple layout that consists of a header, image placement and copy. The image area is blank and the copy is all Lorem Ipsum, a sort of metaphor, meaning that anything can be placed there. It’s all up to the designer. That, to me, is graphic design.
What is graphic design to you? Submit an idea for a chance to win a nice prize.
I also put up a version with the grid on.
NAGO – Nederlands Archief Grafisch Ontwerpers
I’ve had this saved in my “links to blog” folder for a while now and I think it’s time to share this gem with everyone else. I forget how I found NAGO but it’s basically a large archive of graphic design work coming out of the Netherlands. The archive contains a lot of great work that you can get lost in for hours. It’s a visual gold mine.
If anyone has anymore info on this site, let me know.
