Interview
1. What do you think is the purpose of the web?
- Originally I believed the purpose of the web was communication—though communication is still one of the main purposes of the web—e-commerce is now just as prevalent.
2. How does the web impact graphic design?
- Web impacts graphic design because design is what you see. I look at graphic design as the face of the web.
3. How did you become interested in graphic design?
- I became interested in graphic design when I was seventeen and discovered the NASA Graphic Standards Manual. At the time I wasn’t even sure what I was looking at but I quickly became enamored and wanted to create things like it.
