ollowing specialized areas:

  • Brand and Identity design is concerned with the projected image of an organization through its visual representation. This includes the logo, letterhead, brand, and any other image or text treatment that is meant to differentiate the organization from competitors.
  • Brand Experience extends beyond the organization identity to include every advertising initiative. This area is concerned with how consumers and individuals experience and interact with the brand. Examples: Oscar Meyer Weinermobile, Hard Rock Café, Harley Davidson, F.A.O. Schwartz stores.
  • Informational design is about getting the message to the audience as clearly and precisely as possible. Examples: website, instruction booklet, chart or graph.
  • Promotional and Advertising design are two separate areas, however they often overlap. This specialty gets viewers to take notice and then to take action and buy a particular product or service or attend an event. Examples: posters, book covers, CD covers, packaging, giveaways, invitations, websites and banners, direct mail, product placement.
  • Publication design specializes in the layout of content in published materials. These designers must keep the information as clearly presented as possible while capturing the unique spirit or voice of the publication. Examples: newspaper design, magazine design, book design, newsletter, annual report.
  • Type and letter design specialty creates new fonts and type treatments. These are first created by hand, and then digitized for electronic use. Example: Monster energy drink, Hummer, Walt Disney, Lexus, L.L. Bean.

Work Environment

Because types of employers vary greatly, work environments vary as well. Most designers employed at mid- to large-size companies or firms work in an office environment. Some offices may be very professional and conservative while others (such as creative firms) may be relaxed and casual. Designers working for smaller companies or as a consultant/freelancer may work irregular hours to accommodate their clients’ schedules and have smaller, more cramped workspaces.
