Profession of a designer

Art and design are inseparable. Art involves not only the ability to paint a beautifully dressed body, or to make a sculpture of it; it focuses also on a talent to design and construct or to choose and assemble garments and accessories displaying imagination, creativity and a sense of beauty.

A design is a well-considered plan for creating something beautiful. A designer is an artist who creates or modifies ideas so that they can be reproduced on fabrics or on finished goods such as styles in apparel. Although each person is a potential designer, one learns to create beauty through order and harmony to be excellent.

All artists and designers work with the elements of line, space, texture and colour. The elements are not used alone, but are combined in useful, appropriate ways to produce different interesting effects. To achieve the desired artistic effect every artist has to absorb and apply the basic principles of design.

Design encompasses a number of different fields. Many designers specialize in a particular area of design, whereas others work in more than one area.

Commercial and industrial designers develop different manufactured products. They combine artistic talent with research on the use of a product, on customer needs, on marketing. Industrial designers typically concentrate in such specialty as kitchen appliances, auto interiors, etc. Fashion designers design clothing and accessories. These designers create original garments, as well as clothes that follow established fashion trends. Floral designers cut and arrange live, dried, or artificial flowers and foliage. Graphic designers use computer software to develop the design of magazines, newspapers, web-sites. Interior designers enhance the function, safety, and quality of interior spaces in private homes and public buildings. They use computers to plan layouts, because computers make it easy to change plans. Interior designers also design lighting and architectural details, coordinate colours, select furniture, floor coverings, etc. Set and exhibit designers create sets for films, television, and theatre performances. Set designers study scripts, and conduct research to determine the historical period, fashion, and architectural styles appropriate for the production on which they work. Exhibit designers work with curators, art and museum directors to determine the most effective use of available space.
