Initial Ideas----Connections

After studying design and marketing together for four years, connections have become a lot more obvious, and the relationship between the two has continued to be of importance in the success of business's wishing to engage with and develop relationships with their consumers. Its a competitive industry and having loyal consumers can be key to be a well-know and reputable brand.
To identify a connection that would I felt would have potential to be further investigated for the rest of the semester I looked into areas of both disciplines that most interested me.


Design
-handcraft
-nostalgia- 20s/50s
-tactile types of design- materials
-visual communication design- brochures/ posters
-re-use of existing materials 


Marketing

-Advertising- print advertising in magazines, hands on approaches to marketing products/consumer interaction
-Branding- consumer relationships with brands, LOVEMARKS
-Consumerism- the impact it has on people's lives and why they buy
-Integrated Marketing Communications
