Art Direction goes deeper than design

Art direction is the concept and decisions; it clarifies and defines the design. It focuses more on conveying a specific message to a particular audience, something unforgettable and thought-provoking. It basically wants to feel good. Design is the foundation of communication, process, and production. It looks more at the compositions' overall balance and contrast in colours, and it wants to look good.
