What's Happening in Durham, NC…

Graphic design in Durham, North Carolina, is a process whereby designers assist companies by creating materials that help them fulfill their mission. Durham is home to both North Carolina Central University and the world-famous Duke University. It's also part of the Research Triangle region, which contains the Research Triangle Park, an area with a number of scientific, research, and high-technology companies. At Minuteman Press, we enjoy the interesting work being done by companies in the area.

Graphic design is the process of bringing together disparate elements to form a cohesive whole – whether that be an advertisement, website or something else. A graphic designer has a number of elements available to use for the design, including shapes, photos, illustrations, textures, and even typefaces. Those the designer chooses to use will depend on what message the organization hopes to convey, and how it wants to convey it. Some companies are ‘in-your-face’ with bold colors and shapes, while others prefer a more subtle approach.

In Durham, with its closeness to technology, a graphic designer might opt to use illustrations to create the material a high-tech company requests. Since many processes are experimental or in development, it might be difficult to photograph them. However, a talented illustrator can draw even minute objects, or those that cannot be seen with the naked eye, and use them in a brochure to describe the company's work.
