Why is web design important to my design career?
As a striving graphic designer, I find that the whole process of design is based around more than just making things look and express a business or idea. The ability to not only take those ideas and essences and build them into something amazing, but to incorporate them into something interactive and in focus with the new age world of technology is what makes the job as a graphic designer more challenging and more rewarding. I think that using web design to broaden my expertise and my mind will always keep me in touch with the ever changing world of design and technology as well as constantly challenge me to new ideas to make my customers and myself happy and excited about the companies abilities and future.

Well said. I agree that it is very important to bring all aspects of a company into the interactive arena. We learn every class how big the web is going to be in the future of many (if not most) of the world’s businesses. Being able to bring the aspect of whole business design and creating a presence on the web that embodies what that company is about is a hugely challenging thing that so many businesses are still failing at. It’s definately an artform with a big future.
Good luck to you!

I would have to completly agree. I feel it is a very important aspect of not only a designers career but also that of your client. Getting the customers involved is a huge way to reach out to people. I also think as designers anything and everything we can do to broaden our expirence is necessary.
