24.01.2022 Many of our students are practicing designers from different disciplines of design. These days it is very easy to teach yourself over the net by persisting with free software training videos on YouTube or the like. We focus on creating designers that can react creatively and thoroughly to a design brief; who employ knowledge and notion of great design. Please read the course outlines thoroughly to get a better understanding of whether what we are teaching is right for you and your career path.

03.01.2022 We are digging this new branding by Alejandro Gavancho | via Creative Boom "The main idea for this project was to create a destructured and free brand that connects with young people instantaneously," says Alejandro. "Inspired by the 1980s, with a lot of style in the way of combining of colours, using graphics, patterns, collages, a brand was created that portrays a professional image but at the same time is playful and irreverent. The materials and finishes were meticulously chosen to maintain a balance between the minimalistic and the risky." Paired with some powerful photography and we think this is super cool.

03.01.2022 Web designers design focus on user experience. They may not program websites, but they know the basics of programming languages like HTML, XHTML, CSS, PHP, etc, so they can design effectively for the online environment. They are responsible for the look, feel and style of the website and often make decisions about content and images. Web designers develop site maps and work in close collaboration with programmers.
