What is design? For me, design is about creating the message I want to send to people. Design is also a language, we can meet different people through design. Although our languages are not the same, we can be connected because we like the same art design, and we can also be appreciated by a person or appreciated because of a design. Of course, some designs contain characters or designs that are unique to some countries. Maybe people from other countries don’t understand some small details, but everyone will understand them with a little explanation. Good design is appreciated in any language and in any country. If there is a bad design, I think what constitutes a bad design is that it conveys a negative message, or that it is copied from someone else’s design. Design is never good or bad, everyone’s designs are unique and contain their own style. Only the impact of design on society can judge the quality of design. Designers should convey correct and positive information in order to bring good development to society.

    Hi, Chaochao I really enjoin reading your discussion. You talked about a great point about desgin. When coming from different countries we all have our own taste in desgin and how we see the design.

    I completely agree with you when you say that, design is about creating a message for people and that design is also a language. Design can connect people from all over the world and describing it as a language is a great way to put it!

    Hello Chaochao! I really love your point on how design is a language and that we can meet people through design. I definitely agree with you on that because the world of design is so universal and you can meet so many people through this field and your work can be exposed to those different people.

    Hello,CHAOCHAO, I agree with you. For most people, non-native language is difficult to learn and understand, but design can surpass language. Designers can make everyone receive the same information through design elements such as colors, images and symbols. This is the role of design, allowing people to break through the limitations of language and connect with each other.
