Our cognitive faculties respond to imagery and its underlying message more swiftly than they do to audios. Visual communication is often about reconciling personal aesthetic ambitions with broader social, cultural and commercial considerations.
Graphic Design seeks to attract eyes, inspire minds, create desires and motivate people to respond to messages, impact, build a brand, move, sell, and embrace humanity. It is the process to provide visual solutions to communication problems.
