It’s also not for job-searching or recruitment: please use r/designjobs, r/forhire, r/jobs, or r/picrequests instead. You also cannot promote your own products, services, brand, or shop - including your design services.

  2. If posting someone else's work, credit them appropriately. If posting someone else's work, use the 'Someone Else's Work' flair. If posting your own work but it's been heavily inspired by, or has drawn on, elements of another person's design, you must credit them. Claiming someone else's work as your own will result in removal and repeated offenders will receive a ban.

  3. All shared work must have a comment for context. You must write a comment explaining any work that you post for feedback. The work’s objective, its audience, your design decisions, etc. This information is necessary to allow people to understand your project and provide feedback.

  4. No basic/repeated questions. Please Google your question first, and then use the search function on Reddit to see whether someone else has asked your question already. This also applies to font identification questions: use r/identifythisfont instead.

  5. This is not a “homework” forum. This is not a place to pick the brains of other designers to do your job for you. You can ask questions, or post asking for inspiration, but please don’t cross the line to getting other users to do your work for you.

  6. No off-topic/non-civil discussion. We recognise that design can be political and controversial. We welcome that content here, but please keep all discussion in the comments civil and focussed on the design. This rule also applies to responding to those who leave critical feedback – please give, and accept, feedback politely.

  7. No memes/low-quality posts. Please use r/designmemes instead. This also applies to "meme" work (non-serious work created as a joke).

  8. Is it suitable for this sub? To separate r/design from the various other creative industry subs, artwork and posts of pieces that have functional purpose should be submitted here. There's various other subs for /r/art, /r/DigitalArt, photoshop work, illustration etc. Artwork here must have been designed for a functional purpose

    How do you keep your Typefaces organised?

    I was wondering how other people have their typefaces sorted?

    Of course you can favorite some of your most used typefaces but then it feels like at one point after getting more and more high quality typefaces my favorite list feels overwhelming as well as it's just this endless bar of typefaces which are only sorted by name. Is there any better way to organise a big typeface library, maybe a more visual way than a bar with endless names of typefaces?

    Not sure where to go from here?

    Hey all,

    So I'm in abit of a weird situation with my career as a designer and well I have no one else to really turn too.

    So I'm an interior designer and have been since I left uni in 2021, I've had an intern position and 2 junior designer positions. I lost both jobs due to me not really being there experience wise which is severely knocking my confidence as a designer.

    Both companies were commercial design which I hear is harder so many I'm jumping in the deep end too early? I've got some good experience from these companies and some good work under my belt, I've been told maybe an intern position would be ideal but they're very few and far between plus I'm 27 this year I really should have my shit together by now.

    What would you all do in my situation? Has anyone else here been in a similer cross roads career wise?

    Thanks

    Where are places I can look for SVG files to use? I don't mind if they're not free

    I'm looking at etsy and I'm finding 80% of what I need, and am tempted to contact one or two of the artists for a request if I don't find another place to look.

    specifically I'm looking for svg files themed after appliances (I need a microwave, stove, washing machine, and a dishwasher) The dishwasher is rather difficult to find. As I look closer to the other appliances I found they could certainly be more uniform which is why I'm tempted to contact one of the artists that best suits the style I'm targeting.

    Before I reach out to them, are there alternative sources I can check out? I don't want to pay a subscription fee I'd rather just pay for the select svg files I'm after.

    How could I improve my design for this hoodie for a social service club?

    I am creating a design for a hoodie for a social service club., the club focuses on missions, going to indigenous populations, helping out by painting schools, going to islands and helping the starving children there, etc. The hoodie had some requirements, which I fulfilled most of them: it had to be navy blue, include the symbol that represents the virgen de las rosas, include the phrase "ven a construir con nosotros" in a big/protagonistic way, and finally include the phrase "I am always here" (subtler/smaller)

    Hoodie design draft

    I have two problems with the design: the word "construir" is a bit illegible, and I dont know how to modify my design so that it is better read. The other thing is that I have to include the phrase "I am always here" somewhere in the design but have no ideas as to where or how to include it. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    For folks who have had careers on various corporate marketing teams - is anyone else just amazed how lacking on the design side SO many companies are?

    I'm always amazed how little most companies put into/value marketing teams even as a whole, too. But I've especially noticed that so many times there will be just one person doing all the design stuff. Companies seem to love having a number of more operation/strategy-sided marketing folks, but barely any actual designers to execute those strategies, or even creative/art directors on staff.

    It's so weirdly lopsided and really just plain bad business strategy to structure marketing teams like that. It should ideally be more half and half design-sided marketing and strategy-sided.

    Typical features of Verner Panton‘s design?

    I have a project for school (12th grade) and we need to design a product in the style of a particular designer. I chose Verner Panton. In case you wondered, my school is specialized in media design.

    I did some research but couldn’t find much. Maybe you know better.

    So what features are distinctive to Verner Panton‘s design? For example shape, color, material, etc?

    Need help recreating the design, commercial use, copyright?

    I have an interesting question so to say...So let's say this is the original product of a sticker/card already released on a specific market in a certain country(view photo). How would i go about changing the design and re-releasing it as functionally the same product but in a different country to a different market and what is considered copyright material? Is the red square/font and the layout itself also copyright protected or just the logo? If so, how am i then able to even recreate something like this without being able to use the same idea/layout? Thanks, any info is appreciated

    My employer is willing to pay for some classes/certs. What is worth it?

    Hi everyone,

    I'm a sort of self taught designer working in a marketing team as a junior web/graphic designer right now. My boss offered to ask the company to help pay for some classes for my professional growth in design. I also want to test the waters to see if I should go for a masters later on.

    Any recommendations for what I can take/do to make the most of this situation?
