I enjoyed reading this article. A graphic designer had to
describe some of what he did for a living to a group of 4+5 year
olds.
*
His answers and the way he went about it was brilliant.
*
So how do you describe "design"?
*
"Design is about making something easy to use, or easy to
understand."
*
But what about "graphic design"?
*
"I use colours, letters and pictures to help people understand
things."
*
The definition he gave for "design" was brilliant and
surprisingly powerful. I wouldn't have thought of "design" in
that way and yet, that's what it is isn't it?
