Art, (all following text is opinion) is anything which appeals to the
emotional, uses aesthetics rather than pure functionality, to elicit a
response of any kind. I consider design art.
Then we simply disagree on this. To me, typesetting and design are crafts, not art. I simply don't consider I'm commenting on the human condition when I set type. To me, eliciting a response is not sufficient to elevate a thing to art.
