GRAPHIC DESIGN & TYPOGRAPHY

Graphic Design

Everything that is not made by nature is designed in some way by someone. As a medium that combines art and technology, Graphic Design emphasizes the process of visual communication of ideas and information with attention to aesthetic considerations, working process, presentation, craftsmanship, and methods through illustrations, photographs, pattern, line, shape, texture, and type to solve problems and reach audiences. Course work in computer typesetting introduces historical and visual aspects of formal typography and serve to facilitate experimentation with the communicative properties of type. Practical study in this area involves the design and production of books, broadsides, brochures, and posters; the development and application of logotypes and design formats; and utilizing the facilities of letterpress, computer technologies, and graphic reproduction techniques. Graphic design is art with a purpose.
