Sterling Buzz…

Thursday, November 29th, 2012

In a recent interview with PBS, Debbie got to share some thoughts on package design and you can catch some of Sterling’s awesome designs! Check out the video below!

Though often overlooked, Graphic Design surrounds us: it is the signs we read, the products we buy, and the rooms we inhabit. Graphic designers find beauty within limitations, working towards the ultimate goal of visually communicating a message, be it the packaging of a product, the spirit of a book, or the narrative of a building. Utilizing a language of type and imagery, graphic designers try to make every aspect of our lives defined and beautiful.
