What are the Benefits of Graphic Design and Why Should You Care?

If you run a business and you have any form of corporate identity then you should care very much. How you present your company to your chosen market is fundamental to its success.

The graphic design process is crucial to any business, making it stand out head and shoulders from the competition. Whether it is the design of an entire corporate campaign or the creation of a simple company logo it still has to work effectively for you. There are four critical elements that should be seen in every logo design:

• It must be describable

• It must be memorable

• It must be effective without colour

• It must be scalable

Fairly obvious really but how does your logo stand up to these criteria? How does your company identity stand out from the competition?

Ask yourself why something is designed in a certain way. Consider why a particular colour is chosen instead of its opposite. Why use this font? Why include this particular graphic here? A good designer will think through every detail of a design and only include elements that will add to the design and re-enforce the brand.

Once your business is up and running you may think that any form of corporate identity will act to represent the company, visually creating a brand by default. Think again. If you look at the large corporations you will notice that their brand strategy stands the test of time for many years.

Many companies never change their logo design dramatically but only make the smallest of changes to keep the design looking modern and refreshed.

Benefits:

• Professional image

• Considered and long-lasting design strategy

• Make your company look bigger

• Stand out from your competition

• More effective

Hi! again…
Nice music!
Nice Designs!
Nice channel? >>> harquitectura

what program did u use??

Absolutely, as long as you stay true to your deliberately difficult theme. Troublesome will be the distinctly variant designs, putting Asia and India together, but your luck come from both cultures' dominant colors. Sounds like you've discovered this already.

Put your spare Asian designs, in throw pillows for instance, alternating with those busier, from India. Keep your drapes a solid neutral, with luck, a common neutral taken from both. Use a lot of navy or black here and there.

Net examples, try West Elm for general inspiration and extravagant antiques layouts. Can't try Pier One. They've gone offline.

polka dots…..make it connecting puzzle pieces….sun moon stars….flowers…..shapes….smiley faces……zig-zag……diagonal stripes….rainbows….hearts….peace signs…caption bubble with a saying/joke/or "had to be there" statement…….i could go on & on …need more contact me!…good luck!

These are some great design concepts. I also saw some awesome photos of design ideas on this website called PLATINODESIGN(dot)COM

haha sims

well ive done it a couple of times, its awesome to have your custom design on, basically u need to make your design first, there are a lot of softwares like photoshop, coreldraw and free hand, once you have made it u need to give em a jpg file or any other format which can b easily done through these softwares. jst get the dimensions ryte of wot u need to make.

I have used this site: http://www.create-your-tattoo.com/ several times now. It's a one time year or lifetime payment and totally worth it! They even have a money back guarantee. They have 1000's of designs and you can even combine designs and the galleries are amazing. Check it out!

Stickers, decals and/or paint using templates.

hey hey! yeah! its the Sims music..keke

For an invitation? Well when my family was more affluent, we never used stationary for invitations. Once my mother used personalized cakes that read all of the information for her party on them and had them hand-delivered to 2000 party guests.

Honestly, unless this is for a story or something, don't try and be a poser. It's not cool. Be yourself and use whatever types of stationary you think is the best.

very thoughtful designs. Nice work

I’ve patented an attractive metal futon that can be assembled in about two minutes by one person without instruction, tools, or small parts like nuts and bolts. It’s also far easier to convert to a bed than other futons.

I designed it to be cheap and easy to manufacture. I’m selling the exclusive patent rights for $5k plus a very small royalty. You can watch a short demonstration by clicking on my screen name. Contact me any time.

Thanks for watching.

Rule of thumb….
Discuss your rates before starting a project so you both are clear on what to expect.

You have to look at your time you spent on the project, was it complicated, was it something you put together in 20mins and should charge a min of 1 hour, or charge by the project. Revisions included, lot s of things to get fine tuned when freelance.

Good Luck!

Some really nice designs there, but most, if not all, appear to be bedrooms rather than interior designs in general. nice video anyway.

say it with pictures, rough drafts, sketches, mock ups. Money talks as well, if you can convey to them that the utilization of your ideas will save them money in the long run… Many clients already have a very firm idea of what they want. I work in printing and can tell you that the customer does not always want the possible. There are a lot of things that printers find difficult and will charge a ton of extra $ and there are certain things that have to be fought by the printer because the client wont budge. Sometimes we just have to realize that the customer wants what they want and no amount of cajoling, insisting, or anything else can change that fool head…..good luck. I cannot tell you how many art peices I have done fo rpeople and have to make change after change after change…as long as we get paid, right!
