Visual et Graphic Design

Design for Print and Web. Aesthetic. Relevant. Selective.

If a piece of design is to communicate it's content, first it has to captivate in some way shape or form. Both online and physical spaces are saturated with ads, banners and messaging that clamor for your attention, what will stand out from the sea of graphical noise? Design that has been planned within a context and has a goal to achieve.
