Design is more
than Aesthetics
There are Designers who specialize in the what.
They focus on logos, or t-shirts, or motion graphics. Or maybe they focus on servicing particular industries, like the world of restaurants, hotels, beer or streetwear. Maybe they develop personal style. People usually work with designers like this when they want to borrow the credibility of the heuristic associated with their aesthetic.
There are Art Directors and Copywriters who specialize in the who.
These are the experts you want in your corner when you absolutely, positively have to have the expert who knows the ins, outs, subtleties and faux pas’ of a particular market, segment, culture or audience. The designers, art director’s and writers who’ve made their careers in the world of who’s who.
But not less.
And then there are the Creative Directors who are hounded by and in turn hound those around us with relentless questions of “why?”
Intuitive or intentional–there is a reason, a purpose, a logos to each and every logo, font choice, or photographic decision. In a world where context is that which is becoming most scarce, generalists have become the new specialists. Connecting the dots creates relevance and the best aesthetics reveals meaning.
