But in 2024, the places in which we work need to offer much more than cubicles and computers. Case in point: the Eclipse Campus, a new office tower in Dusseldorf which serves as home base for auditing and consulting firm PwC Germany.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. 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.

A new commercial for the booze-free beer encourages non-drinkers to keep on socialising, with a little help from a famous footballer. Zero-alcohol beer has come a long way in the last few years. Back in the 2010s, the industry had enough work on its plate just explaining what it was, let alone why you should give it a try. Nowadays, though, even mainstream chains like Wetherspoons have a good selection of booze-free tipples.

Fowkes ain't in the business of painting individual leaves with a 00 brush.

From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
