Knowledge and Creativity: Designers

    While browsing the Internet for graphic designers, I came across two designers whose work I enjoyed looking at. The first one I came across was David Airey from Ireland. His client list has companies from all over the world, stretching from England to Japan and Canada. The work in his portfolio online is a lot of brand mark and stationary work, with clean cut edges. In the work Airey displays on his website, there does not seem to be a whole lot of color in any of the pieces. It is more like white, gray, and other dull colors. The images are very professional looking, for sophisticated companies, with simple details that get right to the point of what he is trying to convey in the designs. This is why I like Airey’s designs, he has strong knowledge behind his work. In today’s society, people move at a fast pace and enjoy immediate satisfaction from pretty much anything. His designs are easy to read and people can immediately understand what the brand is about or trying to sell. The designs are simple and clean cut, but they are still pleasing to look at.
    The second designer I came across had more spice to her designs, using more color and different images. Jessica Greenwalt, from the bay area, definitely adds more to look at to her designs. Her clients range from the west and east coast of the United States and in the United Kingdom. Her portfolio on her website features work with website designs, prints, packaging, logos, and illustrations. Greenwalt uses strong creativity in her designs with many different colors and shapes that makes one look at the piece a little longer because there is more for the eye to look at. The designs have more fun colors and shapes, such as bright reds and blues, and some cartoon like illustrations, which shows her creativity and is enjoyable to view.
