Abstract
Graphic Design is visual communication. It uses type, images, colors, and lines to create visual representations of ideas. Sometimes these ideas are small, like a logo and business card for a small company, other times these ideas are big, like MTV graphics or packaging for Pepsi. In either case, graphic design is producing and reproducing culture. The decisions of designers have the potential for great and varied influences.
