Indeed, a new wave of contemporary brutalism has been quietly picking up steam throughout the past few years.

One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
