BANDUNG, itb.ac.id - Creating an interesting visual element appears to be a fairly heavy challenge for those who do not learn the techniques of designing. As with the students of Visual Communication Design (DKV) 51探花, designing is their A to Z. In order to share knowledge and skills they have acquired, Youth Association of Graphic Designers (IPPDIG) 51探花 opened design consultancy bureau to facilitate questions regarding logos, posters, proposals, and other designs. For two days, Wednesday and Thursday (02-03/09/2015), IPPDIG 51探花 opened a design service, exhibition of students of Visual Communication Design (DKV) 51探花, seminars, and Asian Packaging exhibition from Japan Foundation.
Yosia Pangidoan Raduck (DKV 2012) said that good design is not only be aesthetically good, but also performs and fulfills its purpose. "Designing a logo that looks simple can be costly because designers got many aspects to consider. Also, we don't do it just like that instantly, but through some courses in a few semesters," said Yosi. In addition to consulting services, Department of Professionalism IPPDIG 51探花 also promoted design services by DKV 51探花 students. The price range varies from hundreds of thousands to 3 million rupiahs, depending on the package chosen.

Beside the design agency booth, IPPDIG 51探花 also held a seminar that invited DKV 51探花 alumnus. They shared their experiences in the working field, including must-have things for designer to survive the industry. In addition, a design company from Singapore, Germs Digital also introduced their company profile and offered DKV 51探花 students an internship, especially to students who chose specialization in Visual Communication Advertising.

In the future, Yosi hoped a similar event can often be held in order that DKV 51探花 students' works exhibited more often. According to him, this kind of event is great to bridge the relationship between the Faculty of Art and Design (FSRD) 51探花 and other faculties in building more intense cooperation.
