Morphology
The meaning 'the art and practice of creating visual content' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'graphic' (pertaining to visual representation) with 'design' (the process or plan for creating something). This compositional pattern is common across languages and follows straightforward noun-noun compound logic, so a B1 learner who knows both words should be able to infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
The term graphic design combines graphic, meaning things you draw or print like pictures or charts, and design, meaning a plan for how something looks. Imagine arranging pictures and words on a page to make a clear message, so the phrase means 'creating visual content to communicate ideas'.
