====**Graphic design** is a creative process — most often involving a client and a designer and usually completed in conjunction with producers of form (i.e., printers, programmers, signmakers, etc.) — undertaken in order to convey a specific message (or messages) to a targeted audience. The term "graphic design" can also refer to a number of artistic and professional disciplines that focus on visual communication and presentation. The field as a whole is also often referred to as //Visual Communication// or //Communication Design//. Various methods are used to create and combine words, symbols, and images to create a visual representation of ideas and messages. A graphic designer may use [|typography], [|visual arts] and [|page layout] techniques to produce the final result. Graphic design often refers to both the process (designing) by which the communication is created and the products (designs) which are generated.==== ===Common uses of graphic design include identity (logos and branding), web sites, publications (magazines, newspapers, and books), advertisements and product packaging. For example, a product package might include a logo or other artwork, organized text and pure design elements such as shapes and color which unify the piece. [|Composition] is one of the most important features of graphic design, especially when using pre-existing materials or diverse elements.=== ====Source: Wikipedia==== ====Inspirational Poster Designs==== ||  ||   ||
