I’m looking for more information on Pieter Huveneers’ career in Australia – if you can help, please do get in contact via the website. Many thanks.

One must recklessly rattle the cage more often, love the comments. Toward.

Graphic Design (read visual communication) is not dead.
It is one of the few non-elitist professions out there, where anyone with the drive, talent and passion can be part of and hopefully make a difference.
The example of Telstra is good though, but its constant upgrades could be as much a fault of insecure marketing teams as the lack of strong Design direction given by the Designers involved.
Perhaps we are lacking a few more people such as Pieter Huveneers, who’s omitted from your list (designer of the Telstra logo and other excellent trademarks still in use).
We should welcome the democratisation of design. But we might also need to ask if some of the studios of today are providing the environment to foster and encourage greater design excellence and management.

graphic design is far from being dead. with so many competing brands on the market is more valid than ever. visiting the supermarket can be a nightmare of sometimes trying to choose a product amongst the many options.
