Graphic Design I is where you stop thinking of design as decoration and start treating it as visual problem-solving — turning a brief into a concept, and a concept into something that actually communicates on the page. The semester runs as a studio: you keep a process sketchbook, work through a sequence of projects (starting with a page redesign and building toward a term project), and spend most of your time at the desk getting critiqued rather than listening to lectures. It's the foundation studio for the rest of the GRA track, where gestalt, color theory, and the analog-to-digital workflow you drill here become the assumed vocabulary for every later course.
