designing for different mediums: print vs. digital
designing for print and digital mediums needs knowing their specific traits and limits. digital design gives flexibility and engagement, while print design is tactile. designers for either medium must consider resolution, color space, typography, and user experience. they must also consider how the audience will consume the design—physically or digitally. designers may create meaningful, engaging experiences that effectively communicate their message by customizing their designs to the media and audience. successful design takes imagination, technical skill, and knowledge of the medium’s strengths and weaknesses.

Hey Maureen, thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts on designing for different mediums! Yeah, it’s super important to know the differences between print and digital design.

Thanks for sharing this interesting discussion I agree that designing for print requires high-resolution visuals, attention to bleed and margins, suitable typography, and knowledge of print materials, while digital design involves adapting to various screen resolutions, incorporating interaction and usability, using appropriate file formats, considering web-safe fonts and accessibility standards.
