“Designers can create normalcy out of chaos; they can clearly communicate ideas through the organizing and manipulating of words and pictures.” – Jeffery Veen, The Art and Science of Web Design

Graphic design solves communication problems by organizing information in an aesthetically pleasing way, and creating visual solutions that will best appeal to the target market. Every successful business builds upon a foundation of marketing and the use of their distinctive identity to promote their company and build a good reputation in the minds of consumers. Promotional displays and marketing materials for products and services, distinctive logos, websites, and signage are all part of creating a company identity and brand. When an advertising piece is designed well, it will attract attention, clearly communicate a message, and will have the unique ability to persuade and sell a product. Well-designed pieces make an organization appear more professional, successful, and appealing to the consumer and often builds trust in the solidity of the company.

Good graphic design makes it easier for people to receive and understand information. With so much information all around us, it is important to have good design that will stand out among the rest. Graphic designers help companies have good design that will make them look professional. Everyone has gone to the grocery store and stood in an aisle wondering which product to buy. Often one of the factors in choosing is the packaging–does it look nice and catch your attention? Similarly, a company’s brand needs to portray its products and services in a professional manner, so they will be the one a customer chooses.

I strongly agree in the need for a company to have great design. I do a lot of purchasing with the company I work for and when I’m deciding between the same product sold by different companies on the web, I almost always go with the company who has better design even if it costs more.

I have found out through experience that companies who take their design seriously are more concerned about their company’s image as well as their customers. They are less likely to disappear over night as well because they have more invested in their website.

btw: Craigslist.com could really benefit from a good designer. I cringe and get stressed out every time I end up on their site.

What are your thoughts?
