Graphic design vs. illustration

Illustrations are usually drawn by hand, be it on paper or digitally, and aim to explain a complex idea in a simple manner, tell a story, or to interpret textual elements in an artistic way. Illustrators nowadays mostly rely on software like Procreate, Adobe Photoshop, and similar programs – or on traditional materials that they digitalize and edit later on. They heed special attention to details, such as expressions on characters’ faces to evoke emotions.

Graphic design, on the other hand, aims to visualize concepts and ideas for fast and efficient communication. Further, graphic designers rather use vector programs like Adobe Illustrator or Sketch to edit, combine, and create designs through vector-based illustration, collages, typography, photos and more.

In short, you could say that illustrations are used to explain and interpret something artistically, while graphic designs communicate something efficiently.

But, as we said before, both of these professions may blend into each other. So, you may also approach minimalistic and communicative illustrations or artistically valuable graphic designs. Especially in marketing, illustrators and graphic designers tend to work together to create unique and engaging designs that catch the eye of the consumer.
