Digital and offset printing are the two main types of professional printing. Digital printing prints directly from digital files onto paper without plates, while offset printing uses plates to transfer ink from a plate to a rubber blanket to paper. Offset is best for larger print runs due to lower per-unit costs, while digital is faster with on-demand printing and customization. The offset printing process involves pre-press work to create plates from digital files, running the plates through a printing press, and finishing steps like trimming, folding and binding. Proper file preparation for offset includes using CMYK color, high resolution images, correct bleed and trim settings.Ask the expert

Discovery its more than just finding a piece of information to complete a specific task. Its more than just search it is uncovering the unexpected, the aha! moment, or the deeper story behind a familiar subject. It is an experience the user experience within a digital space.
This presentation begins by looking at some design examples within the cultural heritage domain that are crafted to foster and encourage curiosity, leading to discovery. Examples draw on different subjects, particularly ones that blend content from different genres and countries. We will unpack design approaches that deliberately invite curiosity and horizontal navigation through different information paths. Then, we will look more closely at some techniques that UX designers can use to shape these experiences, such as how to leverage the users context of use, how to integrate cultural contexts, and how to gracefully find meaning in large scale data sets.Bethany Michels Master of Architecture Thesis 2025

A presentation By Samuel Thuo, The Senses Architect to FxD Community for a PechaKucha Format titled: Flourishing Through Senses: From Absense to Presense to Essense to Re-sensing the World
In a world where skyscrapers rise and senses fall, this presentation explores how architecture can either numb or nourish our humanity.
Act I Absense: The Crisis of Sensory Deprivation
We begin in the concrete jungle, a habitat built for function, but not for feeling. Glass, steel, white walls. Children indoors, glued to screens. Cities that silence rain and sterilize smell. We've lost touch with the sensory essence of living. We're living in a pandemic of nonsense environments.
Act II Presense: The Power of Sensory Grounding
We rediscover presence in barefoot steps on soil, bark under fingertips, beams of sunlight through timber, whispers of wind and scent of wet earth. Flourishing starts when all senses are awake, not just sight. Its a return to how we once knew the world, intimately, bodily.
Act III Essense: Remembering Our Sensory Nature
Flourishing is rooted in our essence, as sensing, emotional beings. We learn from natures flow, from indigenous African architecture, from animals in tune with their environment, and even from cooking. These are acts of multisensory design, where wisdom is embodied, not abstract. Beauty is not in the eyes of the beholder, but all the senses of the beholder.
Act IV Re-sensing: A Vision for the Future
Its time to re-sense the world. Pallasmaa said that architecture is the art of reconciliation between ourselves and the world, and this mediation happens through the senses. We must go back to creating senseful environments that allow this dialogue between us and the world. Homes like Falling water that merge with land. Playful spaces for children. Healing cities filled with texture, sound, and smell. Bodies that root into nature. We must shift from building cold structures to designing sensescapes that foster wellbeing.Bethany Michels Architecture Portfolio.pdf

Why Hire a professional Graphic Designer? Learn what makes great design and what it can do for your business.
Unified: Consistency brings trust, recognition, and recall.
If all your work can be recognized by the viewer as coming from you, they will more easily recognize you, gain a sense of trust in your business, and remember you and your message better.
Organized: Well designed content is clean and easy to take in. You want the audience to be able to quickly get your message
and have their eye drawn to elements in the order you choose by placement and scale.
White space is a good thing. It gives the eye room to rest
between elements and see your message as a whole.
Meaningful: Define your goals, your audience, and what critical information they need to know in order to act.
Genuine: Tell your story and engage your audience to
make them care about that information. The emotional
connection or human component is a powerful
compliment to analytical content.
Concept: With clear insight into your intent and your target audiences needs and issues, design to solve the problems and bring clarity with a solution thats valuable to the viewer.
