As consumers, design can sometimes seem to be made in a vacuum, born from a spark of ingenuity where there was nothing before. As designers, we understand that all is built on the backs of those that came before. We cannot help but be influenced by what we know, whether we like it or not. A prime example of this type of creation is the Utzon Stool. The Utzon Stool by Jørn Utzon is proudly presented for the first time by Fritz Hansen in 2024.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
