Visual Design: Interactive and Print

My Visual Design Philosophy

Conveying ideas to the user requires a keen eye for effective visual design. In the corporate world, there is a need to balance branding, visual interest and useability. To properly mix this recipe into an effective design requires much more than simply creating "cool" graphics in PhotoShop or Illustrator. It requires an exhaustive knowledge of the capabilities - and limitations - of the design discipline you are creating a piece for.

Although there are distinct differences in the goals and processes between interactive and print design -- light, color, shape, layout and content are all primary elements of effective visual design. When used correctly, these elements make up the building blocks of a design that will get results.
