BRIAN CARTER

Parsons The New School for Design, New York NY

Having been a graphic designer for several years, Carter is currently back in school to study Design & Technology at Parsons.

What makes you want to study design? A desire to make things work better. To take a book or a poster and make it communicate more than just the information, make it communicate a feeling. To create a piece that is able to evoke an emotion appropriate for the content, be it excitement or stability.
