Welcome to read this newspaper. This is my first time to create a platform for regarding the furture of design industry in 21st century.

Nowadays, there are many different types of design. For example, graphic design, interior design, exhibition design, fashion design, digital design etc. Base on the recession and the technology is getting higher in London, how can a fresh graduation design student to get a job in the following days?The depressed economy is hitting young artistes hard. Every day brings news of even more alarming cuts to public expenditure, and these will undoubtedly affect up-and-coming creative at the begin-ning of their careers. After all. most of them spend several years studying at art school, and few are giving shows in dealer's galleries at such an early stage. The opportunity to sell work is limited, as is the ability to win a reputation. These young artists are known and recognised only within the confines of their colleges. Even the most promising talents are often overwhelmed by the struggle to gain a foothold alongside established contemporary names. Students leaving art school on 2011 could be forgiven for viewing the prospect with ever accelerating anxiety.

Although they want to sell their work at the graduate shows, who is going to buy unknown artists in a recession-torn climate? And at a time when property prices remain so high, particularly in London, how will they ever afford the crucial studio space needed to make their work in the future?

All these things are valuable for us to consider.
