Industrial Designers are concerned with the appearance and
function of consumer products. Their work is mainly three-dimensional
and the products they design can range from cars, fridges and stereos
to perfume bottles and toothbrushes. They are familiar with manufacturing
process and the different types of materials from which many modern objects
are made. Graphic Designers are often called visual communicator or commercial
artist. Their job is to design all types or printed matter such as posters,
stamps, magazines, books, packages and wrapping paper. They also work
out signs and symbols. The aim is always to present information as clearly
and attractively as possible. Graphic artists have to combine their artistic
experience with a technical knowledge of pinging procedures. Some may
specialize in illustration work. Many work in advertising. Textile Designers
are concerned with the design of fabrics for a variety of purposes, from
clothes to carpets. They must understand the nature of their materials
and acquire technical experience in dyeing; weaving and printing Colour,
Shapes, and pattern are the key elements in textile design. Fashion Designers
anticipate the latest fashion trends and design clothes for particular
needs. They must have knowledge of the use of fabrics, of pattern making
and manufacturing methods and the skill to communicate their ideas through
sketches, and drawings. Other art students take up careers as jewellery
designers, ceramic designers. Some become art or craft teachers. And yet
others may enter the fields or interior design, or designing for art of
stage, film and television productions, either sets or costumes. Professions
from allied fields of study include architecture, gallery and museum administration,
and photography.
