Signs Dictate - Design Educates
Our design lessons teach you composition techniques to help you create graphic designs with layers of meaning.
A graphic design is much more than a sign. A sign will only tell you one thing such as 'stop' or 'go'. However, a good graphic design has several layers of visual and verbal meaning that communicate many things.

How to Create Original Ideas
Our design lessons teach you composition techniques you can use to create original designs.
The first ideas that you think of are not usually the most original. The reason they are already in your head is because you have seen them before in one form or another. The best ideas are those that you discover by trial and error through composing and adapting the layout of your design.
