 These are ten examples which i have found which i believe create a simple and effective style of graphic design. each of these are work which have been used to communicate a message and under each i have wrote The designer, the project name , the title of the design, the client and the year it was created. Below are some quotes from the designers which i think similar to and agree with what they are trying to say. 


 Scott King - "There's no point in doing decorative design... it would just interfere with what i had to say..."

Extra Design - "Make it as simple as it can be."

Philippe Apeloig - "Graphic Design is the intersection point between art and communication."
