The Print–Web Comparison November 18, 2009
Posted by dobryan in : Media of Design , add a comment
Comparative Analogies
- the content’s hierarchy should maintain a certain level of legibility
- the fundamentals of design apply to both
- although there are a few color restrictions for both media, color should be used as an expressive tool to further your content.
Essentially, good design is good design whether it is using pixel or page.
Usually, these quick answers hold my students at bay long enough for them to experience the difference for themselves.
Making my job slightly easier, CSS Tricks has recently posted an article that further explains this comparison. That nifty little article can be found here.

Work by Bob Newman, John Waters exhibited at Indigo Sky Gallery
Artists ruminate on verbal and visual representation
In “Words Implied/Words Denied,” an exhibit on display at Indigo Sky Gallery, Newman joins forces with fellow SCAD graphic design professor John Waters to ruminate on the nature of verbal and visual representation.
“The quality of the work in this particular exhibit is really superior,” said Jerome Meadows, Indigo Sky’s gallery director. “Bob and John’s work does mesh together so well. I like the idea of graphic designers offering a different take on visual communication.”
