WHAT IS GRAPHIC DESIGN? Graphic Design is the art of communicating in a way that makes people's’ lives better. You have to start with a concept. You can’t gather an idea without the concept. Then, put it into action. That is what Graphic Design really is. It’s ACTION. Have you ever noticed that when you got to the grocery store, your eyes are drawn to color? What about shapes? Simplicity? Confusion? Puns? All of those products on the shelves had a team of graphic designers behind it. Every label was started with a basic concept, then an idea. Then a new idea. Then a new idea built on top of the first idea. every. single. time. Designers have to start with that basic concept to get anywhere. Graphic design has to evoke a story, has to make you wonder Why? Graphic designers have to have a basic understanding of human psychology to evoke these thought processes.
