What is Graphic Design

Many times, graphic design is very underestimated in the eyes of people but graphic design is much more than you think. Graphic design consists of the communication that can be projected from an image or objects. All that surrounds us is based on graphic design. Many times it is necessary to carry out a study to know which group of people it is aimed at and identify the essence of what you want to project or what you want to communicate and something much more important is that it be original and striking for the eyes of customers .

What a Graphic Designer Does

Years ago, I always considered that graphic design was always that idea of ​​generating or developing a logo for a company, I always considered it as a simple discipline. Currently that idea has totally changed. Graphic design is much more than just making a logo, it consists of expressing a project to a specific group of people. And in which, it has a lot of sub-jobs to be able to achieve the objective. Graphic design exists in everything that surrounds us.

In the video “What is graphic design … what a graphic designer does from Design Council.” I learned that to do an excellent job in this area it is also necessary to take into account the typography, the hierarchy, the space between the letters, the color, among many more details. All these elements allow a good graphic design to be allowed, it is essential to do a search about what you want to project and to whom, it is very important to know to which group of people the work is directed.

I would like to know how graphic designers always have ideas or be creative with their projects?
