Clark Creative Group (CCG) has produced a line of t-shirts and tote bags with the theme, “Design Matters. They chose the theme to celebrate their firm’s 25th anniversary. Of course, design matters to CCG because it’s central to who they are and what they do for their clients.

In that spirit, CCG has developed a few expressions of the “Design Matters” message to benefit the San Francisco Chapter of AIGA, the professional association for design. This non-profit organization has been a crucial source of support, education, and advocacy for the design community since 1914. And like CCG, the San Francisco chapter of AIGA is also celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

At this moment, however, CCG is exploring why design matters in a broader context. How design makes the world a better place…

Design matters because it persuades. Graphic communication is a visual argument. Like good verbal oratory, it spurs us to weigh the points pro and con. Have a favorite movement, charity or cause? Chances are pretty good that design played a role in persuading you to get involved.

Design matters because it delights. How many times have you saved a promotional poster, clipped a favorite ad or tacked up a cool product package—just because it was fun or quirky or inspiring to look at? Design finds the specific beauty in the things of every day.

Design matters because it intends. Good design has a clear point of view. It takes a stand, and encourages us to do the same. It allows us to be decisive as it helps clarify why we feel or believe or act the way we do.

I am most impressed (although I shouldn’t be) with the extraordinary design which you have produced.

Of course, being the recipient of your vast creative knowledge, I can vouch for your integrity, both artistic and morally.

I will be a supporter of whatever you do, for you stand for all that’s right with this country.

okay so the soccer gods have spoken. this is from my earlier question.

i said that habs and stars would lose if liverpool lost today’s soccer match vs chelsea.

and chelsea won 3-2, with more points aggregate going to chelsea making it 4-3 over liverpool.

i think i also said that if liverpool had won carey price would start the game, and since they didn’t i’m going to stick with that. i can’t change predictions. BUT hopefully carbo does start him and carey has a good game.

i’m trying to make it so that the habs will come up with something but based on what i said earlier the flyers and sharks (eww) are going to win tonight.

GO HABS!!!!
go stars!
who do you think is going to win the hockey games tonight…but there are so many of them already so mine is all based on soccer.

and also flyers fan, i’m watching the news so i can’t get to sports news till 6:30, but really, they said that he’s not starting at the warmup. well earlier today carbo was still undecided and at preskate no one knew who would start. and also agree 100% with Mike. i hope that halak gets an oppertunity to be a starting goalie because he is that good. i already said that in the halak vs price questions a little bit earlier today. a cold halak is not like a cold price. he’s really a good goalie, and his technique is a merge, while carey’s is mostly one style.
