In a world where audiences are bombarded with images, design, and photography become critical tools in brand narrative, contextualization, and frame of the written content. Using stock photography is acceptable if done with a keen eye for choosing pictures that suit the audience 100%. A trained eye can spot less-than-perfect harmony in the design a mile away. And in the age of AI design, design templates abound ad nauseum and everybody runs a design studio from their basement. But it takes a master to understand and execute the complicated relationship of balance, design principles, and word – image – space balance perfectly. Well done to the artists whose work changes minds in different ways.
