Graphic Design is the art of creating visual content for problem-solving and communication purposes. It’s a broad field that includes iconography, typography, color, imagery, and so on. Modern-day branding and advertisements depend greatly on graphic design as communication primarily focuses on drawing the visual attention of the respective target groups. 

This Graphic Design course aims to guide a beginner through the fundamentals of the graphic design process. This includes the research work that needs to be done prior to starting the design process, the key software that is needed, choosing suitable and customized fonts, creating unique branding styles, and building personal online portfolios.
