Abstract
This is a presentation via a poster detailing how graphic design influences our opinions. Furthermore, how we interact with products, perceive others, and trust companies and brands. We will use specific examples to show how poor design compares to more though-out and intentional design. There will also be in the inclusion of factual data concluded from an independent study that we conducted. This data will emphasize our point, the importance of graphic design and why it is such an influential aspect of society. We are creating this poster as graphic designers to advertise to other fields of the community about the impact and necessity of our field. Without graphic design, many parts of society would not be able to function the way that they do today.
