• Can visual design accomplish things that language cannot? Why?

Visual design can accomplish things that language cannot one of the biggest examples is during WW2 when the nazis used visuals against jewish people, with the many propagandas showing jewish as  bad and evil people.  Visual design is more powerful than words because more people tend to understand images better than words

 

  • How are signs, signifiers, and the signified employed in visual communication?

signs are very important in design we see it everyday in the streets with the signs of transportation that helps people be safer while driving their car.  Also the signifiers show us in images and words how we should use an object and the signified is what it stands for. all of these go hand by hand with each other.
