Dissertation proposal. O U G D 6 01 Adam Riley
To w h a t e x t e n t does Aesthetic ‘Style’ reflect the context, audience and/ or function of contemporary Graphic Design.
1.
I chose this specific question becuase of my strong interests into the different design theories and movements that are attatched to different time periods within graphic design. I have previously written academic writing about the influence of postmodernism and modernism upon contemporary graphic design and feel that I either need to expand upon this further or take a more generalised view on different design aesthetic.
