A designer is a person who designs or creates something. Perhaps the broadest definition is that provided by psychologist Herbert Simon: 'Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.'

As well as amateur designers, there are many professional designer occupations (see list of Examples). To become a professional designer usually requires study to degree level and certain work experience or training. Entry to some design professions is strictly controlled or limited by legal requirements, but use of the title 'designer' is generally un-regulated.

Working as a designer usually implies being creative in a particular area of expertise. Designers are usually responsible for developing the concept and making drawings or models for something new that will be made by someone else. Their work takes into consideration not only how something will look, but also how it will be used and how it will be made. There can be great differences between the working styles and principles of designers in different professions.

In the 1980s the term 'designer' began to be applied to products such as furniture and clothing that had distinctive aesthetics or were the work of certain 'signature' designers. So, for example, there were 'designer chairs' and 'designer jeans'. The term later came to be applied to anything that was ostentatiously created for a purpose, such as 'designer drugs', or even the 'designer stubble' worn by some fashionable men.

a designer is a person who designs objects.

What degree do kitchen designers have that work at Lowes/Home Depot?
Q. I'm a graphic design student at the moment and work at Lowes minimum hours at the moment as a cashier. I heard one (maybe more) of the kitchen designers has a graphic design degree though. This confuses me but I'm interested in learning more about this since I've been given the opportunity to work in that area. I thought they would have needed some sort of interior design degree? I just wanted to find out some info before I go into work next time so I appreciate any help.

How does a person go about getting onto a publisher's list of book designers?
Q. I have just graduated with a B.A in Graphic Design and I am interested in designing book covers. I was wondering, how does a person go about getting onto a publisher's list of book designers? If anybody can also give me some insiders advice of the industry that would be great.

A. Well I'm going to say, like a lot of those industries- books, music, film etc there is an element of luck involved in getting employed. However, I would just find a couple of publishers you are interested in working for and ask them for some work experience, if you can prove in the short time you have as work experience that you are irreplaceable then chances are you will get a job there. Good luck :)
