What is the value of graphic design?
Graphic design has the power to attract, inform, and inspire. You want people to take notice of your offering, learn how it can benefit them, and then act to make use of it. Intelligent graphic design accomplishes all three of these tasks with the professionalism and voice your business deserves.
What is graphic design?
Graphic design is, at the most basic level, the selection and presentation of text, shapes, colors, and imagery to convey meaning. Expanding outward there is also working in three-dimensions, tactility, interaction (both physical and digital/online), information structure, etc.
What separates good design from not-so-good design?
The thought, time, and skill necessary to set and meet realistic, smart goals. Thought is put into goal setting and creative solutions. Time allows ideas to spring forward and evolve. Skill assures the fine-crafting of strategy and production.
What have you been working on lately?
The easiest way to find out is through my email newsletter, published every 2–3 months, which features recent projects and happenings. The subscription (and unsubscribe) process is automated, so why not sign up for the Kirk Roberts Design newsletter right now?
How many people work at Kirk Roberts Design?
One, and that person is me (Kirk Roberts).
Why should I consider hiring you?
I have a formidable skill set regarding print and web design and production, honed through formal education and years of experience. As a solo practitioner I can assure you of personal service. I pride myself on my professional ethics. I can admit when I don’t know something and then won’t stop until I find the answer. I am serious but not dry.
How can I learn more about design?
Buy or borrow a book called “Universal Principles of Design.” It explains 100 different design principles in concise, clear language with lots of helpful visual examples. Each principle stands alone so you can skip around. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the “why”s of the design discipline.
