Designer PR?

Have you ever wondered how public relations (PR) and design come together?  Public relations as an industry keeps evolving year after year, and like design it tends to change and evolve over time, keeping up with the trends and what's in and what's best for the masses out in the world.

So, with that in mind, both industries are kind of linked together- full of energy, doing it for the people, attention to detail, fun, fast paced and enjoyable- now- have you ever wondered and looked at the world around you- the buildings, the fashion, the cars, technology, your house, your utensils and even the magazines and newspapers you read? Designed by people you know, by those that have an eye for what you think is right, for what will be socially acceptable to you- you end up purchasing goods and services appealing to you and indoctrinated by a hard working public relations person who has thought long and hard about how a certain item will be of interest to you and influencing you with the help of the media to make that decision.

Next time...think and wonder how YOUR world would be without design and public relations...what do you see?
