Graphic design is the process of visual communication and problem-solving using one or more of typography, photography and illustration. The field is considered a subset of visual communication and communication design,

but sometimes the term "graphic design" is used synonymously.

Also is the art and practice of planning and projecting ideas and experiences with visual and textual content.

The form of the communication can be physical or virtual,

and may include images, words, or graphic forms.

Images, patterns, layouts, and other graphic devices composed into a coherent, distinctive design intended for printing or display over visual media. A graphic design does not have to be complicated (containing multitude of graphic elements) to be effective. The 'nutrition information' section (found on the labels of practically all packaged foods) that creates a table of data using only horizontal bars of varying thickness is considered

one of the best designs of all times.
