What is graphic design — the competition

Veerle Pieters had the idea to start a contest with the question “what is graphic design”. The outcome is out­stand­ing! So many great con­tri­bu­tions! I don’t care who will win, since the con­tri­bu­tions are already the biggest win we all could get: If someone will ask you the next time, what graphic design is, just point them to that picture pool.

I decided to not explain graphic design with some “spec­tac­u­lar” graphic design—although, as usual, it took me a awful long time to choose the right font for my state­ments—, but after all, even a simple page with 6 sentences required some serious thoughts and fiddling around to make it look attractive.

Veerle probably remembers my name because of my unpol­ished tongue and will just throw up a little when she will spot it, but i can’t change the way i am, and if my entry does look like bloody fucking shit to anyone, i will gladly take that as a con­struct­ive critic if they feel like saying so :D
