🚀 POV: The Power of Murals – Lessons from a Guadeloupe Masterpiece 🇬🇵 Murals are more than just art on walls—they’re stories told in color, scale, and emotion. The Guadeloupe mural is a perfect reminder that design, whether on a canvas, a screen, or a wall, is about impact, message, and connection. Here’s what we can learn from this mural and apply directly to graphic design: 🔹 1. Scale creates presence Large murals dominate the space and capture attention instantly. In design, bold headlines, striking visuals, and strong hierarchy serve the same purpose. 🔹 2. Colors carry culture The mural reflects the identity and spirit of Guadeloupe. Similarly, thoughtful color choices in design communicate mood, culture, and brand personality. 🔹 3. Storytelling is everything A mural isn’t random—it’s a narrative. Every element adds to the story. Great design does the same by blending imagery, text, and layout to guide the audience. 🔹 4. Public art = accessibility Murals are open to everyone; they democratize art. In graphic design, clarity and simplicity make your message accessible to a wider audience. 🔹 5. Context shapes meaning A mural in Guadeloupe has a different impact than the same artwork elsewhere. In design, knowing your audience and cultural context makes your work more relevant. 🔹 6. Emotion drives connection Whether it’s pride, joy, or wonder, murals evoke emotion. In design, emotional resonance is what turns a simple visual into a memorable experience. ✨ Key Takeaway: Murals remind us that design is not just decoration—it’s communication, storytelling, and cultural expression. Whether on a wall or a website, the principles remain the same: scale, color, context, and emotion matter. 👉 Follow me Learn Graphic Design for more creative insights, design lessons, and inspiration to sharpen your design mindset. #LearnGraphicDesign #Murals #DesignInspiration #CreativeProcess #ArtAndDesign #StorytellingThroughDesign #CreativityUnlocked #VisualCommunication #CultureInDesign #DesignerLife

Just visited SEAWARDS, groupe Seanergy in Marseille – a startup tackling one of the planet’s biggest challenges: sustainable access to freshwater. 🌊💧 Traditional reverse osmosis is energy-intensive and produces chemically treated brine. Seawards is taking a bold new path with cryo-separation™ ❄️—a membrane-free process that freezes seawater to isolate fresh water. ✅ No chemical additives ✅ Lower environmental impact ✅ Modular and low-maintenance Brilliant, nature-inspired innovation for a more sustainable water future, it opens the door to desalination where waste cold is available or RO isn’t viable or too destructive. Please reach out to Hubert Montcoudiol for any inquiries including piloting. Special thanks to Norbert Barré and his fantastic Accélérateur de solutions-climat for bringing Seawards on my radar. #WaterTech #Desalination #ClimateInnovation #Sustainability #Seawards #
