Graphic Design Today

The birth of desktop publishing in the mid-I98os changed the face of design forever. Suddenly, designers had access to a faster and cheaper way to create and manipulate graphic material without the need for many resources (material and human) or expensive and complex techniques (such as hand rendering or paste-ups on paper typesetters). Lengthy and sometimes painful apprenticeships were no longer mandatory to be able to work as a designer. Computers embraced a number of traditional techniques, offering instant results and overall efficiency. Production costs dropped, production turnover grew, and computers became a designer's best friend, revolutionizing the industry in the process.

The rigidity of rules in the professional world of graphic design relaxed now that everyone had a computer and Adobe Photoshop installed on it. Richard Niessen from Niessen & de Vries studio complains that unprofessional clients think designers can design a book in a day, and make corrections in a minute, while they wait, on a Sunday afternoon.

"There are no more technical walls behind which we can hide ... Since the clients have color screens and color printers most think in full color. They forget the fact that print work is about reproduction, and that you can play with it. On the other hand: they recognize that what we do is far more creative than whatever they can do in their free time."

The magic is gone. Clients can now ask their little nephews to come up with a quick solution based on their ideas and desires. It makes you exposed to unjustified scrutiny, creates a certain tension in your relations with clients, especially when you're young and inexperienced and you don't really know how (or dare) to confront them
