design as a profession was formed through the integration and mutual
influence of many historical and social factors related to the
scientific, technical, socio-economic and socio-cultural progress.

forms and methods of work - both in traditional formats, and new, just
emerging or rapidly changing media and publishing formats. It is good
that our school has collected so many interesting ideas," he said.
