Design may be defined by the following aspects: a Aesthetics, history and advertising b.History, semiotic and teleological c Aesthetics, teleological and semiotic d Semiotic, proportion and line
(c) is correct Aesthetics, teleological and semiotic: The significance of design lies in its ability to fulfil these demands, whether aesthetic, teleological, or semiotic. Aesthetic is concerned with the aspect of beauty in an image. Any design has a function as well as some purpose. This is known as teleology. Semiotics refers to the study of signs and significations, and graphic designers create visual signs that are meant to elicit a certain effect in the mind. (a) is incorrect The three aspects of a design are Aesthetics, teleological, and semiotic. Graphic designers make use of semiotics to induce a certain effect on viewers. Similarly, the aesthetic aspect is included for visual appeal and the teleological aspect refers to the ability of a design to fulfill a purpose. Since only Aesthetics is included option (a) Aesthetics, history and advertising is not right.b) is incorrect Semiotic and teleology are aspects of a design. But history does not form an aspect of a design. Instead, Aesthetics is the third important aspect of any design. Since this aspect is not included option (b) History, semiotic and teleological is wrong. (d) is incorrect A semiotic is an aspect of a design. But proportion and line are not aspects of a design. Instead, teleology and Aesthetics form two other important aspects of a design. But option d does not include these. Hence option (d) Semiotic, proportion, and line is wrong. Final Answer (c) Aesthetic, teleological and semiotic
