LETTER FROM THE EDITORS | WELCOME TO THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY DESIGN ANNUAL
GORDON KAYE AND SASHA KAYE-WALSH ARE EDITORS AT GDUSAComments, suggestions and letters can be sent to editorial@ gdusa.com.
“The more things change, the more they stay insane.”
That was the title of an episode of a short-lived tv show called Muddling Through, mostly remembered for launching Jennifer Aniston’s career. More on this later — about the muddle, not the actor.
As GDUSA winds up its sixth decade, I have been thinking a lot about the evolution of graphic design as a discipline and profession, how it has morphed and changed over time, and how to make some sense of it all.
One way to look at the modern era of graphic design is as a triumphal and linear march toward glory. The argument goes as follows: since the mid-20th century the graphic design profession has elevated itself from decorative afterthought to a vital force that reflects, advances, enhances and even shapes commerce, culture and causes. Moving inexorably from backroom to boardroom. Growing in influence and recognition and value in the eyes of business and society. Promising an ever brighter future since we are ever more a visual society, and graphic designers are uniquely situated to crystallize and communicate the truth and essence of the thing. I love this framework of an arc that bends inevitably in our direction because it is uplifting and successfully explains a lot about the broad sweep of design history.
Still, I also think the less glorious concept of “muddling through” has truths to tell. Every day and in every generation, graphic designers have faced ups and downs, cycles and trends, challenges and disruptions, fears and fragility — with very little of the way forward clean or clear at any single moment. I have been leafing through 60 years of GDUSA news magazines and enewsletters and webpages, and it is hard to miss that the grittiness often outweighs the grandeur. Yet you all, collectively, still stand tall, ready to face the next economic, social, or technological curveball about to be thrown. And the next. Life, they say, is not so much beginnings and endings as finding the way to go on and on and on. Graphic designers have shown incredible durability, deep inner strengths, a breathtaking capacity for reinvention and renewal, adaptation and accommodation, for finding their way down the middle. There is honor in that, too, and a touch of humility.
But enough — too much — philosophy. And, surely, too many words.
Let me just close the circle by noting that our 60th GDUSA Design Annual is living proof that graphic design survives and thrives in 2023, however you choose to describe the journey. The numbers alone are prodigious, with nearly 9,000 entries in the 2023 competition and 750 pieces showcased here and on our website. The depth and breadth of projects is remarkable, a representation of the best of American graphic design across the ever-widening range of clients, projects and media that creative professionals touch.
Most importantly, it is graphic communication for commerce and culture at its best executed by creative professionals who ably and authentically advance their client’s objectives to build meaningful value and make human connections for their organizations, brands, products, services, causes, beliefs.
Triumphal march or modest muddle? Either way, as long as there are designers who can visually express the truth of the thing, it’s all good.

2024 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT TRENDS CREATIVES NEED TO KNOW
BY LUCY MARINOAs a creative professional, you know that staying ahead is about more than having a standout portfolio. Understanding the job market, salary expectations and employment trends are equally important as we head into 2024.
Luckily, research from the latest Robert Half Salary Guide can help give you an advantage, whether you're searching for a new job or looking to advance with your current employer. Here are highlights from the guide that I recommend all creative professionals know:
POPULAR ROLES AND THEIR SALARIES
First, let's talk numbers. Salaries are still on the rise, even if increases are likely to be more measured than in recent years. No matter the job title you have or want, knowing the national midpoint salary for it gives you a strong starting point in negotiations. Here are a few popular creative jobs and their midpoint salaries:
● Art director: $97,750
● Graphic designer: $66,000
● Production artist: $61,000
● UX designer: $113,250
● Web designer: $77,750
● Packaging designer: $65,500
For a more tailored look at salaries based on your experience and skills or location, take advantage of the information and interactive calculator in the Salary Guide.
SKILLS THAT WILL MAKE YOU STAND OUT
If you’re on the job hunt, the odds are in your favor. A notable 63% of creative managers surveyed by Robert Half say they're actively hiring for new roles, while another 35% aim to fill vacant positions. So lots of job openings are out there, but 94% of managers admit they’re struggling to find skilled talent — particularly in specialized fields like marketing and UX design.
Even in this candidate-friendly market, competition is stiff for the most coveted creative positions. So what skills are so hot right now that creative and marketing managers are willing to bump up salaries to get these professionals on board?
●. Marketing automation (cited by 36% of marketing and creative managers)
● Digital marketing strategy (33%)
● Marketing research and analytics (33%)
●. Creative development and art direction (25%)
● Social media (24%)
● Graphic design (24%)
Digital and tech-adjacent skills are clearly in the spotlight. If you've been hesitating to master the latest design software or UX tools, consider this your wake-up call. But don’t overlook soft skills. As AI and automation shake up creative industries, qualities like emotional intelligence and empathy are gaining importance. That’s because while machines can crunch numbers and analyze data, they can't read a room, take a risk they weren’t programmed to take or form human connections. In the creative world, understanding what makes people tick often drives success.
THE APPEAL OF REMOTE AND HYBRID WORK
Given that 65% of professionals would want a salary bump (a 17% increase on average) to commit to working in the office full time, it’s evident that flexible work options are quickly shifting from a nice-to-have to a necessity. Some creative firms have learned this the hard way, with 59% of managers reporting losing strong candidates because remote or hybrid work weren’t on the table.
If you’re open to working in the office full time, use that willingness as leverage for a higher salary or additional perks. Prefer a hybrid or remote setup? Make your case by showing how you've been productive in such environments before. No matter your work-style preferences, emphasize your adaptability and quick learning skills to up your marketability in today's fast-changing world.
THE RISE OF THE CONTRACT PROFESSIONAL
Creative employers increasingly turn to contract or interim talent to plug skill gaps and keep projects fully staffed. It's a win-win: Companies can move forward on critical initiatives without adding to their permanent payroll, and professionals gain the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects in multiple industries.
Where are managers putting contract talent to work? Here’s what they told Robert Half:
● Digital marketing (48% of managers)
● Traditional marketing (44%)
● Advertising (39%)
● Design and production (38%)
● Content development (31%)
● UX/UI design (31%)
Contract work could be your golden ticket if you're struggling to find a full-time role or are eager to diversify your experience. Work with a talent solutions firm to access the best contract opportunities. They often have the inside scoop on what companies are looking for and can match you with assignments that suit your skills and career goals.
BENEFITS AND PERKS
It's not just about the paycheck. More than a third (35%) of creative and marketing job seekers are looking for better benefits and perks, with 41% counting them as a top-three consideration when choosing a new job.
Here's the catch: Some companies are trimming back on these extras to cut costs.
If you plan to negotiate perks and benefits in an offer, present a well-thought-out plan that not only meets your needs but also shows value to your employer. For instance, you could argue how flexible working hours make you more productive or how paid time off for volunteering can broaden your horizons and elevate your overall perspective — making you an even greater asset to the company.
Going into 2024, creative professionals have a wealth of options. Whether you're showcasing your one-of-a-kind skills, hunting for a more flexible work setup or considering contract roles, there's plenty of room to carve out the career path that's right for you. But no matter what route you choose, knowledge is power. Use trusted resources like the Robert Half Salary Guide to make smart, career-boosting choices in the year ahead.
