How do you design an idea? This might sound like nonsense, but visual communication (such as graphic design) requires meaning in order to convey a message. This means that to create an effective design you must have a reliable way of establishing a core, compelling idea early on in each project. That process is called conceptual design.

Because conceptualization occurs in the mind, it can be fairly easy to overlook. But conceptual design is the foundation on which good design stands, and even technically brilliant designs can fail without a solid, backing concept. With that in mind, we’re going to walk through what conceptual design is and how to apply it to your projects.

WHAT IS CONCEPTUAL DESIGN?

Conceptual design is a framework for establishing the underlying idea behind a design and a plan for how it will be expressed visually.

It is related to the term “concept art”, which is an illustration (often used in the preproduction phase of a film or a video game) that conveys the vision of the artist for how the final product might take form. Similarly, conceptual design occurs early on in the design process, generally before fine details such as exact color choices or illustration style. The only tools required are a pen and paper.

Conceptual design has the root word “concept,” which describes the idea and intention behind the design. This is contrasted by “ex*****on”, which is the implementation and shape that a design ultimately takes.

Essentially, the concept is the plan, and the ex*****on is the follow-through action. Designs are often evaluated for quality in both of these areas: concept vs ex*****on. In other words, a critic might ask: what is a design trying to say, and how well does it say it?

Most importantly, you can’t have one without the other. A poorly executed design with a great concept will muddle its message with an unappealing art style. A well-executed design with a poor concept might be beautiful, but it will do a poor job of connecting with viewers and/or expressing a brand.

Finally at the end of The 8 fundamental types of graphic design

8. ART AND ILLUSTRATION FOR GRAPHIC DESIGN
Graphic art and illustration are often seen as being the same as graphic design, however, they’re each very different. Designers create compositions to communicate and solve problems, graphic artists and illustrators create original artwork. Their art takes a number of forms, from fine art to decoration to storytelling illustrations.

Even though graphic art and illustration are not technically types of graphic design, so much is created for commercial use within the context of graphic design that you can’t talk about one without the others.

EXAMPLES OF ART AND ILLUSTRATION FOR GRAPHIC DESIGN

T-shirt design

Graphic patterns for textiles

Motion graphics

Stock images

Graphic novels

Video games

Websites

Comic books

Album art

Book covers

Picture books

Infographics

Technical illustration

Concept art

Graphic artists use any combination of media and techniques to create their work as they collaborate with writers, editors, managers, marketers and art directors across all graphic design types. They’ll often have a foundation in fine arts, animation or architecture. Overlapping skills and apps make it possible to find graphic designers who also work as graphic artists and illustrators (and vice versa).

USE THE RIGHT TYPES OF GRAPHIC DESIGN FOR THE JOB

Graphic design is an ever-growing field, and the demand for specialized and skilled designers is on the rise. When you’re looking for the right person to take on a design job, knowing the different types of graphic design will help you identify the specialist you need.

Today we are celebrating, this strong woman... Harriet Tubman for her sacrifice to the freedom of other slaves.

Harriet Tubman was born into slavery but gained her freedom traveling alone via the Underground Railroad. She is said to have went on to free around 300 slaves in the following years.

Tubman started her work on the Underground Railroad by retrieving members of her own family, including her parents, several siblings and various nieces and nephews, according to our source. When the Civil War began, she supported the Union, working as a spy and a nurse before leading the daring Combahee Ferry Raid, which freed more than 700 slaves. Later in life, she became a prominent voice in the abolitionist movement and also fought for voting rights for women, helping to shape a path from slavery and discrimination toward justice in the United States.

THE 8 FUNDAMENTAL TYPES OF GRAPHIC DESIGN ARE:

7. ENVIRONMENTAL GRAPHIC DESIGN
Environmental graphic design visually connects people to places to improve their overall experience by making spaces more memorable, interesting, informative or easier to navigate. Environmental design is a broad type of design, here are some examples:

Examples of environmental graphic design

Signage

Murals

Museum exhibitions

Office branding

Public transportation navigation

Retail store interiors

Stadium branding

Event and conference spaces

Wayfinding is a specific type of environmental graphic design that consists of strategic signage, landmarks and visual cues that help people identify where they are and where they need to go so they can get there without confusion.

Environmental graphic design is a multidisciplinary practice that merges graphic, architectural, interior, landscape and industrial design. Designers collaborate with people in any number of these fields to plan and implement their designs. Because of that, designers typically have education and experience in both graphic design and architecture. They must be familiar with industrial design concepts and able to read and sketch architectural plans.

Traditionally, environmental graphic design has produced static print pieces, but digital interactive displays continue to rise in popularity as a means of creating a more engaging experience.

6. MOTION GRAPHIC DESIGN
Simply put, motion graphics are graphics that are in motion. This can include animation, audio, typography, imagery, video and other effects that are used in online media, television and film. The medium’s popularity has skyrocketed in recent years as technology improved and video content became king.

“Motion graphics designer” is a somewhat new specialty for designers. Formally reserved for TV and film, technological advances have reduced production time and costs, making the art form more accessible and affordable. Now, motion graphics is one of the newest types of design and can be found across all digital platforms, which has created all sorts of new areas and opportunities.

Examples of motion graphic design

Title sequences and end credits

Advertisements

Animated logos

Trailers

Presentations

Promotional videos

Tutorial videos

Apps

Video games

GIFs


Motion graphics designers begin by developing storyboards and then bring their concepts to life with animation, video and traditional art. Depending on the industry, a strong working knowledge of marketing, coding and 3D modeling can be definite assets.

PACKAGING GRAPHIC DESIGN

Most products require some form of packaging to protect and prepare them for storage, distribution, and sale. But packaging design can also communicate directly to consumers, which makes it an extremely valuable marketing tool. Every box, bottle and bag, every can, container, or canister is a chance tell the story of a brand.

Packaging designers create concepts, develop mockups and create the print-ready files for a product. This requires expert knowledge of print processes and a keen understanding of industrial design and manufacturing. Because packaging design touches so many disciplines, it’s not uncommon for designers to find themselves creating other assets for a product such as photography, illustrations and visual identity.

packaging designers may be a jack-of-all-trades or specialize in a specific type of packaging (like labels or beverage cans) or a specific industry (like food or children’s toys). Their work requires top-notch conceptual and problem-solving skills in addition to a strong working knowledge of print and industrial design. They must be flexible to meet the demands of clients, marketers and manufacturers and be aware of current trends.

3. PUBLICATION GRAPHIC DESIGN
Publications are long-form pieces that communicate with an audience through public distribution. They have traditionally been a print medium. Publication design is a classic type of design—think books, newspapers, magazines and catalogs. However, there’s recently been a significant rise in digital publishing.

Graphic designers that specialize in publications work with editors and publishers to create layouts with carefully selected typography and accompanying artwork, which includes photography, graphics and illustrations. Publication designers may work as freelancers, as creative agency members or in-house as part of a publishing company.

EXAMPLES OF PUBLICATION GRAPHIC DESIGN
Books

Newspapers

Newsletters

Directories

Annual reports

Magazines

Catalogs

Publication designers must possess excellent communication, layout and organizational skills. In addition to graphic design expertise, they need to understand color management, printing and digital publishing.
