What is Graphic Design?

Graphic design is communicating through the internet using the power of words and pictures.

It's communicating with people and trying to make them feel what you are feeling using only the internet.

 Concept

Idea 

Life

It is a language for the living.
We see it in every aspect of our daily lives. Everything we eat and by is convoid by graphic design. 

Sometimes it must be intricate, other times it must me subtle; but it must capture the attention of the people. If you must use something, make it interesting. If it's interesting then people will want to be there.

Match books, posters, and book covers are just examples of graphic design.


This is the new book cover for Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
Now, almost everyone has read the novel and know that in this future, fire fighters burn books. With this book cover, it gives the book some irony with the match and striker side to actually light the book ablaze. 

Graphic designers need to communicate with the people, know what's up, and how the current times are. With graphic design the world wouldn't be the same as it is now.
