I have learned through combination of research and practice that design authorship is a necessity for the future evolution of visual communication design.


I have also learned that a designer can produce authorship as a collective by having his singular voice which can give voice to any other idea.

...That's why i came up with my own collection triggering the aspect of rules since i am a person who knows the rules of life but happen to change them or break them every time...

One is a Lebanese designer from my native country called Tarek Atrissi who is born in Beirut and he worked and studied in Lebanon , The Netherlands, Qatar, Dubai and the United States. Another designer is Alan Fletcher , born in Nairobi, Kenya . Alan moved to England at 5 and he founded the design firm Fletcher/forbes/gill with Colin Forbes and B ob Gill in 1962.
