The world is a huge online library and all of us rely on
its for information. Today, upgrading over established
forms and messages needs new images, while
symbolism as an arsenal that still remains relevant. The
new perspectives and transformations in the design are
combined with the established trends and directions
from the 70s. Designers are going back to the past to
rethink good practices and timeless examples. Bold
color combinations and solutions are sought more than
ever. The concept remains leading and the clearer it is,
the better. Trends appear every year and a lot of
people follow them follow, which in certain aspects
leads to the unification of the overall look in the design.
I don't like trends, but I get informed about them.
3D objects and compositions are entering more and
more. The search for specific solutions through
different materials also has its ground. The game of
typography plays a key role. The augmented reality
that is used around the world for a couple of years is
yet to be developed.
All these aspects lead me to think that the line between
art and design has long since disappeared. Design is
the new art of our century. Precisely because of the
easy and quick access to the viewer, it contains and
summarizes the essence of what is happening at the
moment. This does not exclude traditional media, but
integrates them. An interpolation, or curve of
equalization of values in art, is obtained. In order not
to be dry mathematicians, we can say that the gap
between the applied graphics and art began to close.
