Moreno Franco Profile Picture

Moreno Franco

Cape Town, South Africa •
Artist (Digital Arts) •
Born 1952 •
"The only job free of 'design flaws' is the one where no design went in to it".

Designers design, because they are NOT happy with what they see around themselves.

Always unsatisfied with what the graphic design world has to offer, they set off to "do a better design job of it". Or they wish they could have designed a better product / commercial / brochure…

They would all like to be as good a designer as that famous guy that designed the doorway with the rotating flensing knives… what's his name again?

Graphic Design is Art in Use.
Design is a term that is both a noun and a verb. When it is being used with knowledge. Unfortunately, it has more lately become to be used as an "opinion" . . . and, with the advent of the desk top computer, a cottage industry infested with charlatans.
