Why we like his styles??
• We think Saul Bass is an amazing person. His ideas was creative, even most of his designs aren’t colorful or variety as much as other designs. But they are still impressive and we think that his designs are really classic and different from other designs.
Do you think graphic design would be the same today without the designer?• In our opinion, we think that graphic design
wouldn’t be the same today without the designer, because all of the designs that we’ve seen in the advertising media, television media or the internet. All of them were designed by the designer. If we didn’t have the designer, there wouldn’t be any designs for us to use.
