imagination7413 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 1 hour ago, blake_ryder said: Can you tell me what is the most important element of design that should never be ignored, regardless of the project's scope or purpose? Nothing should come above the purpose. The function. Form should always follow function. As an example, I'm going to step away from graphic design and dip into engineering design. A bridge has one purpose: safely allow passage from point A to point B. If it fails this function, it fails it's purpose. This is why it is critical for designers to know the intent and know what they are doing. Quote 17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll politely counter that argument with one word: Rothko. Would you pay $2.5M for this? Some dope did.

Some dope did. Design and art are different - what I said applies to design, art is another animal entirely. Not to mention the art world is highly speculative in terms of valuation. Perfect money laundry vehicle, since value is inherently subjective! Edited March 12, 2023 by visualstudios 15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagination7413 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Not a counter argument, but I wouldn't say that looks bad. I certainly would never pay a crazy amount, but aesthetically, I actually kinda like it. Like a beach at sunset. I could see myself picking something like that up at a yard sale for $5, depending on how it's matted and framed. (Assuming nothing bigger than a 3'-4' canvas.) 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are saying it is only overpriced by $2,499,995. I tend to agree, as it would burn for heat the next time we blow up Nordstream.

yevheniazozula Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Individuality VS client requirements: how to find a balance. Find the middle ground between originality and customer expectations. As creative people, we all face the tension between bringing our personal style and point of view to a project while also satisfying clients. How can we bring originality and still meet expectations? Start with a thorough understanding of the client's goals, target audience, brand identity, and must-have features. This gives you a framework. Also ask a lot of questions - go deeper into their requests. Also, be creative within the parameters required. Offer options that uniquely reflect their brand story while leveraging your skills. Ask for feedback and be willing to make compromises. Mastering this balance requires experience and the ability to learn when to bend and when to stand firm. The key is to use extra time and iteration. Treat projects like true collaborations. With practice, you'll gain the confidence to advocate for quality work while providing top-notch customer service. Artistic talent must be tempered by the spirit of partnership. If done correctly, customers will be delighted and you will retain pride in the finished product. Remaining flexible, communicating fully, holding freely but firmly to your core values is the recipe for a creation that satisfies both parties. Keep doing this until you find a happy medium between originality and expectations. The results will be worth it. Share your experience with budding designers! 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yevheniazozula Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Criticism and Creativity: A Resilient Approach in Design When Critics Strike: Receiving Feedback With Poise You unveil your latest design darling, eager for roars of applause. Instead, the critics descend and pick apart your creation. Their harsh words feel like daggers piercing your creative soul. Breathe in resilience and remember - feedback, though painful, can gift you growth. Pause before reacting. Hear them out fully. Avoid righteous indignation.Consider each critique point fairly. Does it highlight real opportunities to refine your work? Critics often see weak spots that creators miss, being so close to their art. If clients just want reasonable adjustments, collaborate to find agreeable solutions. Don't assume they're dismissing your work entirely. See compromise. Venting to friends about unfair critics is fine. Just don't burn bridges professionally. Thank critics for caring enough to share their perspective. Once emotions settle, reflect on lessons learned. How can you avoid similar missteps going forward? Catalog insights gained. As an artist, you must nurture thick skin. Criticism gets easier to take over time if you view it as fuel for advancement. While bruising to your creative ego initially, feedback is a gift, not a curse. Approach it with grace, apply it with wisdom, and let it elevate your skills. Keep courage alive. The next opportunity to wow your critics awaits! What you create need not be perfect, but you must be fearless. Onward. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aminul_design Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 If you love what you do, then you have to accept another fate and that is "room for improvement". In this fast moving world, you have to be expert in recent trends. Otherwise, you position will be filled be filled by another expert. Take me for instance, I myself a student of accounting, I got myself a software engineer and web development diploma. Now, I'm an expert in website design. Now, I am learning more and more about graphic design. That does not mean that I do not love what I do. But to survive here, we have to adapt with the recent trends and enrich our knowledge. Nothing goes to waste. Now, I can both design and develop websites, softwares. Also, with my accounting background and expertise, I can and did both design & develop accounting softwares as well. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
