This is part of my report, just as backup here, so... What is Graphic Design? Why history? History is not just some document recorded down to be kept in library. To me, history is the key which opens the door to the future. May sound crazy, but by learning what happens in the past makes me think about it like what should be done for improvements, what if they did something else other than that, and I think this probably leads to history inspired designs used in these days.

The need to study the history of Graphic Design is so that we can be more exposed to the various styles of art and understand why it is in that form. Like what and why did the artist start drawing in this shape using certain colours? Is it related to what is currently going on with their lives? Their past? The world? Since most believe that art is a way of expressing somebody’s feelings, so there must be some reason why a certain style is executed in that form?

The need to understand a style, the feel of it is important. Grabbing something attractive and using it without knowing it’s true meaning, to be is dumb. Is like sending a hidden message between the message of the style used and the content that you want to bring across. Since communication is the key, then there is a need to understand the content of the style, it’s intended purpose for it, before executing it at the right moment, the correct audience.

DO WHAT?!
