Graphic Design From Around the World: French Design
Graphic Design From Around the World: French Design
The French are known for being stylish, and it’s a reputation that has endured for centuries.
However, while France has prevailed as the tastemaker
in Europe and around the world — leading the way in fashion, art, and
luxury design — its graphic design, particularly of recent decades, may
be lesser known.
French design is unconventional in modern design terms; it doesn’t have the minimalism and refinement of Scandinavian or Swiss design, or the bold colors and exaggerated characters of Japanese design, but it certainly has its characteristic features that range from aesthetic to philosophical and ideological.
So take your style cues from the French and don’t let commercialism and functionality hinder your creative vision. French design has originality, artistry, and sophistication, and challenges its audience visually, emotionally, and intellectually. Here are ten characteristics of French graphic design that may help you add a little je ne sais quoi to your work.
