Morphology
The meaning 'a person who creates visual concepts and designs' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'graphic' (pertaining to visual representation) with 'designer' (someone who creates designs). This compound follows a common noun-noun composition pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Graphic designer The compound noun graphic designer comes from graphic, meaning 'picture' or image, and designer, meaning someone who plans and makes things, so it gives a clear picture of the job. That's why a graphic designer is a person who plans and creates pictures, layouts, and other visual work for printed materials or the web.
