Graphic design was a development in response to this influx. The modern practice of graphic design was born out of the need to facilitate effective communication, and I believe that nothing has changed in this respect. My work strives for clarity through simplicity, a seemingly effective method in the realm of visual communication. My work also strives to create unique connections between content and form, if done correctly, I believe that a piece will operate as both a work of art and an avenue in which effective communication occurs. More specifically, when content and form are effectively balanced, I believe that a piece is more likely to be successful. It is my job as a designer to clearly communicate while consistently bringing a creative edge. I am influenced and inspired by designers such as Stephan Sagmeister, Paul Rand, Paula Scher, AM Cassandre, and Miton Glaser.Student worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
