I recently carried out a questionnaire primarily to leeds college of art students purposefully, to gauge the kind of design practice developing in essentially the next generation - the future of graphic design.
Questions asked gave a lot of interesting information about methods most designs use for design inspiration, how many have collaborated overseas, and where and their own opinions on culture + design becoming standardised or not due to global cultural reach.
Questions:
--
I also took this opportunity to design an interpretation of an internationally considerate design style, as my dissertation is closely linked to my own growing design awareness I'm aiming to create a small body of design experiments which visuallise a highly communicative, progression of the International Style.
In this case I've created layouts encompassing the top 3 languages in the world, accounting for 25% of the world - English, Chinese (Mandarin) and Spanish. Although most likely everyone speaks English in LCA it was an enjoyable and I feel relevant exercise in engaging with the aesthetics of what I'm researching.
I hope to have an individual body of work reflecting my research and thought process, and finally a truly international style through collaborating on a subject across the world
