Art and Design Differences
- Art is the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form. Works of art are often appreciated mainly for their beauty or emotional power.
- Design involves the conscious use of skill and creative imagination, particularly in the production of aesthetic objects. Designing often considers aesthetic, functional, economic, and sociopolitical dimensions of the design object and design process.
- Design is about creating, fashioning, executing, or constructing according to a plan or task.
- Design aims to solve problems or provide information, and communicates a distinct message.
- Art is judged by opinion, which is governed by taste.
- Design has an element of taste, but the difference between "good" and "bad" design is mainly a matter of opinion.
- Artistic ability is a talent that a person is born with. It can be cultivated and refined, but some part of the ability is innate.
- Design can be taught and learned. A person doesn't need to be an artist to be a good designer; skills are required to achieve the design objectives.
