The subject of what separates art and design is convoluted and has

been debated for a long time.

Artists and designers both create visual compositions using a shared

knowledge base, but their reasons for doing so are entirely different.

Some designers consider themselves artists, but few artists consider

themselves designers.

So what exactly is the difference between art and design? the core

principles of each craft is also art. The designer’s job isn’t to invent

something new, but to propose alternative concepts for something

that already exists, for a purpose.

That purpose is almost always to motivate the audience to rethink the

objects through designs that most effectively communicate their

message and motivate their consumers to innovate their own ideas.

enamel over a silver pendant..

A good piece of design can still be successful without being to

your taste. If it accomplishes its objective of being understood

and motivates people to do something, then whether it’s good

or not is a matter of opinion.

Few artists call themselves designers because they seem to better

understand the difference. Artists do not create their work to sell

a product or promote a service. They create it solely as a means

of self-expression, so that it can be viewed and appreciated by

others. The message, if we can even call it that, is not a fact but a

feeling.
