Polish design history has been very tumuluous and directly related to the country's history and political systems.

Diehl-Michalowski
In Poland, design is still in the development phase and there is currently no one specific dominant style characteristic only of our country. Until recently, we were trying to design correctly, and now we are looking at how to design incorrectly.

I have the impression that design culture in Poland has been changing in a good way over the last few years. Increasingly, clients see value in what we do and appreciate it. Of course, there will also be people who do not fully value our work, in which case it is better to let such a project go.

Though this is about illustration, I think there is a tendency to prefer narrative and explanatory elements over visual (graphical ) interest. (But maybe things have changed a bit recently?)
