SPD, established in 1965, was formed to acknowledge the roles of art director and designer in the visual understanding of the printed word. The art director as a journalist brings a unique skill to the editorial mission of the publication and clarifies the editorial message. The specialized skills of the designer confront the challenges of technology within a constantly expanding industry. The society promotes the highest standards of excellence in
editorial design. |
