Though often overlooked, Graphic Design surrounds us: it is the signs we read, the products we buy, and the rooms we inhabit. Graphic designers find beauty within limitations, working towards the ultimate goal of visually communicating a message, be it the packaging of a product, the spirit of a book, or the narrative of a building. Utilizing a language of type and imagery, graphic designers try to make every aspect of our lives defined and beautiful.

Thanks for making my life so ugly with your hideous design work losers. I wish graphic design would dry up and die.
All great designers base their work on a ton of creativity and scrap a lot of ideas and concepts before starting to graphically design it. You need unique concepts and to also make sure that your design suits the product, you want something that makes the viewer gasp! Also, Steve Attardo’s covers are amazing, this guy is very talented!
I can't help but feel America is quite far behind Europe when it comes to graphic design. My friends graduation show had better work than most of the examples in this video.
This is very intresting!

I create graphic design images, as well, and it involves a lot more than what others may think. It is that complex and that necessary to have.
Graphic design is already part of our lives. Every thing we see has a design as a designer our objective is to convey people, to catch people by our expressive designs.
