Intertwined Design
Looking through fashion websites and architecture magazines, I can't help but get inspired. Yet, I am a graphic designer. It amazes me how much all of the different areas of design can intertwine within each other. No matter what aspect of design you're pursuing, there are little bits and pieces you can take from all fields. Having more inputs and knowledge of other areas of design, can help you in your chosen career. It is so important to be aware of everything going on around you in the design world, whether it's your specific field or not. When trying to come up with an idea, looking through not only graphic design books, but also architecture magazines, and fashion images, can help immensely. There are elements in each field that each designer can use. When trying to think of a shape of a logo, look at some of the cool shapes of architecture. When trying to think of a colour palette for a poster, look at a colour palette on an outfit. Each aspect of design seems to work together, which is inspiring in itself. We can look to other areas of design for creativity, encouragement and stimulation, but, being the right brain people we are, that is just the beginning.
