Communication Design is about solving a communication problem, not just creating a pretty picture.
In an era where technology is broadly accessible to the public, it is often the case that businesses will either try to tackle their own design solutions or pass the job onto a friend who has access to the latest computer programs.
These particular people who are able to use design software, instantly perceive themselves as graphic designers when they are merely computer operators. However this is where the barrier is broken between what was formerly known as Graphic Design and what is now called Communication Design.
The term ‘Graphic Design’ gives off the impression that the designer will create some kind of Graphic image that should look nice. Whilst this can be true in certain cases, they are missing the bigger picture.
The aim of the Graphic/Communication Designer is to communicate a particular message to a targeted audience, via a carefully researched and well thought out design solution.
