    Art and design are important for a few reasons. First, they allow people to express feelings and make commentaries on social issues and aspects of daily life, communicating messages that can resonate with others. Thoughtful designs can improve everyday life by making spaces more livable and people more comfortable, while art beautifies environments, making them more enjoyable to be in.
