ART AND DESIGN: SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
Abstract
This article explores the intricate relationship between art and design, two disciplines that share a creative foundation while serving distinct purposes. Art emphasizes subjective expression, focusing on emotions, ideas, and aesthetics without the constraints of functionality. In contrast, design is inherently utilitarian, aimed at solving practical problems by balancing creativity with functionality. The article highlights key differences and overlaps between these fields, illustrating how changes in artistic approaches have historically influenced design practices.
