Who gets to say What to whom?

by Maud Lavin

presented by the second group .

We are surroundings by all the kinds of visuals , ads , posters , banners in the street but what differ a a design from another is its concept , idea . strong concept is the main factor of success for any design . such as the posters that was made to aware people about smoking, well it has huge impact in people because of its strong concepts .

but still as a graphic designers we should avoid the fact that people are too busy too look behind the visual to figure the concept , so with taking creativity in consideration , the design should be clear and simple so it attract people as they see it and it won't take their time in understanding it . 

Coca- Cola has very strong concepts in their ad campaigns , even though it is a strong product form the beginning but the campaigns they do give people more motivate to buy it . it shows the company as caring for the people feelings even though it is not a healthy product .

Beautility is combine of two words : Beauty and Utility ,
Beauty is differ from culture to another but in general it is what pleases human senses 
Utility is the thing that is practical and useful .
form a design aspect the designer should consider those two elements on their design , if there is something useful but not very beautiful and comfortable to the eye . of course you will look for another product of the same function but in a better look . thats don't apply in every person some people they more into the practical side of the product , for example: Crocs . they do not have very beautiful shape but still many people wear them because they are comfortable and useful .

Even though beautiful design add touch to the product and some people like me buy things based on there packages specially perfumes , I like to buy these perfumes which comes in a very creative and different shapes and I keep them even if it's finished .

What’s Wrong with Plagiarism?

Plagiarism is another word of Stealing , from design aspect it consider the worst thing in design field , because if you can't do the work yourself you don't deserve to be a designer . and beside being a thief you are a lair too . as a designer it is ok to be inspired by other work by the same style maybe but not copying the same idea , there is several examples of plagiarizing very famous logos and use them in other things .

there is a a famous guy I heard of him a lot , the press wrote about him :

"Damien Hirst shocked the art world this month by hosting his very own AuctionBeautiful Inside my Head Forever at Sothebys. Cutting out the middle man the artist was able to make over $200M, making him the richest living artist in the world. Of Hirst’s $200M, $17M was generated by his shark piece entitled, The Kingdom."

but the real shock was that before two years the same idea and almost the same exaction was made by Eddi Saunders

Here in Saudi Arabia Plagiarism become like (AL Salim Alukim ) it means it become a habit . and nothing wrong doing it . and many places they steal logos and packages of famous global companies such as be cold who look like pepsi can .
