Lella Vignelli—Massimo's wife and design partner—was a powerhouse in her own right. With a background in architecture, she seamlessly blended elegance and functionality in everything from interior spaces to product design. Her meticulous attention to detail was the driving force behind many of their best-known works, including the timeless Handkerchief Chair and the stunning interiors of Saint Peter's Church in New York.Lella was more than just Massimo's collaborator—she was a visionary who believed in creating design that was truly timeless, free of trends and fads. Yet, despite her immense contributions, Lella's name often remained in the background. So, why is her story so often overshadowed? And how did she quietly reshape modern design?Tune in to this episode to hear the incredible legacy of Lella Vignelli—a designer whose work deserves to be front and center. About GiorgiaGiorgia's Books:This is Me and Only MeObserve Collect Draw!: A Visual JournalDear Data: A Friendship in 52 Weeks of PostcardsGiorgia Lupi is an Italian information designer, a partner at design firm Pentagram, and co-founder of research and design firm Accurat.

Tune into this 5th episode of a 10 Part series, "Designer's Digest” with Saif Faisal, A new breed of bold Contemporary designer and founder of SFDW This series is created by Audiogyan in partnership with @godrejdesignlab Designer's Digest series is about Design as a profession, it's daily grind, the secrets to climbing the design career ladder, and what edge we'll need to thrive in the captivating world of design. Massimo Vignelli's once said, “If you can design one thing, you can design everything.” Even in our part of the world, somewhere in 15 hundred.. Mirza Khan Abdul Rahim once said, “Ek sadho, sab sadhe”.. Saif completed his training as an Architect from RV School of Architecture in 2010-11, alongside designing and participating in Formula SAE-Racing with the Mechanical engineering students at the college, where he acquired diverse experience in design, manufacturing, and technical know-how. After college, he went on to learn woodworking. These diverse formative explorations gave him a polymathic learning experience. His work draws heavily from his understanding of Anthropology, Processes, and Technology, which is very integral to his creative explorations. The deep appreciation he cultivated of ‘Essentialism' from racing is revisited in his Design and Architecture. Saif is involved in guest lectures and talks at design and architecture schools. Apart from being an avid motorcyclist and a lover of cafe racers, he is into boxing and pursues his culinary interests rather seriously. Questions You've done architecture, lifestyle products, furniture, jewelry, accessories and more. How do you define your work? You also have diverse interests, from motorcycling to boxing and cooking. How do these pursuits influence your creative process? Who according to you is a designer? You talk about “Essentialism” - What is the essential quality to become a designer? What is the difference between Essentialism and Minimalism according to you? Is Essentialism more inclusive than minimalism? Lets take Loup of example. You draw inspiration from sociology, philosophy, and anthropology. How do these disciplines inform your understanding of the human experience, and how does that translate into products you create? Any example of a product you made? If I can take the liberty to say, Art is expression while design is functional, responding to a problem. Where and how do you see art and design lines blurring, given your work deals with higher levels of aesthetics. Why do you call wood to be a humble material? What did you learn in wood work? What made you consider learning that? How can it help any designer interested in making physical products? Do you see geometric forms as a universal language? Do you see that in Indian history or culture? How have you borrowed this universal language and contextualised for India? May be you can explain with the lamps that you have made? Where are you on Massimo Vignelli's quote, “If you can design one thing, you can design everything.” How comfortable the journey has been to switch domains? What advice would you give anybody who has such wide range of interests? or does one need to master something before traversing? You often talk about Indian design education need to level up. Our work needs to appeal to a global audience. What do you mean exactly? Where are the gaps? What can be done about it? We have often seen us using Jugaad as one of the primary methods of innovation. What is you take on that? What do you wish from the new “Make in India” generation? How can they push the boundaries of design?

“The characteristics of jazz help. Its sense of improvisation, individualism, sound, and rhythm are all present and important in graphic design, too.” - Niklaus Troxler, who have been improvising with letterforms like Jazz Musicians since 1960s. In my opinion, a Poster is a mix of typeface and graphics communicating something. In here, typeface matters a lot. To discuss this and more, today we have Sarang Kulkarni with us. Sarang is a type designer and co-founder of Ektype. He also has his own agency called as The White Crow where he does branding and typography work. This Audiogyan will be in English and Marathi. Questions What according to you is Type / Akshar? Massimo Vignelli said that he is comfortable with half a dozen typefaces lasting a lifetime. Rest all is visual pollution. What's the need for more typefaces? What triggers a need for new typefaces? Medium, Language, Expression, Enhancement, Technology, Content? Are there ways to systematically study and distinguish between an improvisation of a typeface versus a different typeface? For eg, Mukta and Modak have different anatomy, so we can say that they are 2 different fonts. But can we say that Inter is an improvised version of Helvetica? You deal with a lot of abstract forms as well. At letterbox, for eg: “k” (Marathi) can be identified if one looks at the flow or series of iterations of representing ‘k'. Can a letter form be identified in isolation? What's the extent of improvisation? How abstract one can go and still make it palatable? When can one start improvising on a typeface? When the base font is registered in everyone's mind. For eg: Can we improvise on a newly launched font set? Does improvisation in a typeface done only as an experiment can transform into the usage of mass communication? What's going on with 365 days of type and more such practices and movements? Are those improvisations? How easy or hard is it today to experiment and improvise on open-source fonts? When does the author know that the improvisation is done?

Massimo Vignelli saw the world in black and white — and I'm not talking about one of his favorite color combinations. In his manifesto, The Vignelli Canon, he paints of scene of stark contrast: appropriateness vs arbitrariness, elegance vs vulgarity, discipline vs chaos. About quality, he said there are no hierarchies. “Quality is there or is not there, and if it is not there, we have wasted our time.” A Modern moralist, he traced the birth of his ideology to the publication of the French Encyclopédie in the mid-18th century, the embodiment of Enlightenment thinking at the time. While he does acknowledge this a “personal canon” and “my interpretations of reality,” his simple and powerful words cast him in a superhero persona, a crusading creative living a life of “fight against the ugliness.”In addition to covering his core philosophy, we'll use this episode to explore themes of timelessness, context, and commercialism and consider the enduring relevance of the Canon.Outline* History (1:11)* Core philosophy * Semantics (2:26) * Syntactics (7:26) * Pragmatics (9:30)* Timelessness (16:40) * American Airlines* Context (32:30) * Dribbblisation of design* Commercialism (41:46)* Bonus: how elegant paper sizes relate to evil-sounding music (47:26)References* Hard copy of the book (Lars Müller Publishers)* PDF of the book (rit.edu)* Objectified documentary by Gary Hustwit (hustwit.com)* American Airlines Rebrands Itself, And America Along With It (Fast Company)* American Airlines rebrand upsets Massimo Vignelli (Phaidon)* The dribbblisation of design (Intercom)* Vignelli tribute poster series (Anthony Neil Dart) This is a public episode.

Across his four-decade-long career in graphic design, Michael Bierut has amassed an impressively robust tally of bold-faced clients. From The New York Times, Saks Fifth Avenue, and the Robin Hood Foundation to Mastercard, the New York Jets, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Bierut and his team at the multidisciplinary design firm Pentagram—which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with a two-volume book from the publisher Unit Editions, and where he has been a partner since 1990—have crafted some of the most unforgettable, standout identities and graphics around. Perhaps most notable in recent years, Bierut devised the unequivocal “H” logo used throughout Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Consistently fueled by the sheer delight he finds in design, Bierut is also a co-founder of the website Design Observer, launched in 2003 and among the first online platforms dedicated entirely to design. With everything he creates, Bierut whittles each of his concepts down to its most essential core, ultimately arriving at something that feels both rigorously thought through and inevitable in its simplicity.On this episode of Time Sensitive, Bierut talks with Andrew about the integral practice of keeping notebooks throughout his life; the deep groundedness of his nearly lifelong relationship with his wife and high-school sweetheart, Dorothy Kresz; and why the “why” of design is far more important to him than the “how.”Special thanks to our Season 6 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Michael Bierut01:13:57 Pentagram00:23:28 Design Observer01:23:40 Mastercard logo01:30:44 The Library Initiative01:39:26 How To01:39:59 Pentagram: Living by Design 

It's not very often that you can accredit somebody with keeping heritage alive. But today you'll get to hear from John Edelman who we can attribute to doing just that. Formerly CEO of Design Within Reach, John and his business partner are reviving Heller Inc., a brand that since 1971 has worked with some of the most influential designers like Massimo Vignelli, Mario Bellini, and Frank Gehry, just to name a few. John's a big believer in that “modern is forever”, which has truly helped pave the way for his success in the business world. But John didn't just randomly fall into the world of design and furniture. It all started with his grandparents and parents, who had eyes for great design and courageous talent. They even hired a graphic designer back in the day who John describes as a man with white straight hair who didn't talk much. If you know anything about art, you can probably guess who we're talking about. All these experiences in John's life have led him to be a collector of many things, of course starting out with furniture, moving into watches, cars, vintage TV's and radios, you name it. Not only that, but he uses everything in his collection. But today we're keeping it day one, talking about the collections that got him to where he is today. Without further adieu, John Edelman, for Collectors Gene Radio.Heller Inc - https://www.hellerinc.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwh4ObBhAzEiwAHzZYU2BTPzxl1dMNXt-8lw_4TMCkNc2weM746NWUiQ1cD2TrVexYP3-KWhoCBroQAvD_BwEJohn Edelman Talking Watches - https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/talking-watches-with-john-edelman

Highlights from the conversationMy lack of conviction about branding may be [because] everything is being presented as a brand nowadaysBranding was this shorthand for authorityDesigners are taught form follows function. What really makes design contribute to culture are those 'other things' that come into playBrands provide visual and experiential cues that help us work through a complicated environmentMy [interest] in the subject matter has a direct relationship to how good the work for it isEverything is being presented as a brand nowadays More about Michael BierutMichael Bierut has worked as a graphic designer for over five decades.

Back in 2012, in the basement of the New York Pentagram office, Jesse Reed, along with his colleague Hamish Smyth, unexpectedly came across a piece of design history - the original New York City Transit Authority graphic standards manual, a modernist masterpiece designed by Massimo Vignelli and Bob Noorda.This was the moment that lead to the pair founding Standards Manual, an independent publisher focused on archiving and preserving artefacts of design history to make them available for future generations.In this episode, Ian interviews Jesse Reed to learn more about the origins of Standards Manual, lessons learned from preserving the historical documents, as well as behind the scenes lessons learned working with design legend, Michael Beirut. We also discover how Jesse co-founded the Brooklyn-based design office, Order.Show notes and episode transcription can be found here: https://logogeek.uk/podcast/standards-manualsBook & Resources MentionedNew York City Transit Authority Graphics Standards Manual - Buy on Amazon UK | Amazon USEnvironmental Protection Agency Graphic Standards System - Buy on Amazon UK | Amazon USNASA Graphics Standards Manual - Buy on Amazon UK | Amazon USThe Worm - Available for Pre-orderParks - Buy on Amazon UK | Amazon USIdentity: Chermayeff & Geismar & Haviv - Buy on Amazon UK | Amazon USUnit Editions Manuals 1 and Manuals 2.Logo Package Express 2.0.

Harry Beck created the worldwide standard on diagrammatic mapping, and he did it by being the most persistent annoyance in the history of the London Underground. Plus, some Italian guy named Massimo Vignelli made one of the prettiest maps ever, and New York roundly rejected it.Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/DepartureBoardHelpful sources: “Transit Maps of the World” by Mark Ovenden“What Your Design Looks Like To Peripheral Vision”, Ruth Rosenholtz: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1836248.1836264Design Culture's 2013 interview with Massimo Vignelli

“We're all striving, looking to make something of ourselves. And when we do make something of ourselves, then we worry that we're going to lose it or that we're not going to be able to sustain it” – Debbie MillmanI’m pleased to announce an extra special episode of This Way Up (www.thiswayup.io). It was recorded Live on stage at the famous Design and Advertising festival in London in May 2019 and features the amazing Debbie Millman.___________________________________________Debbie Millman (@debbiemillman) is a true design icon - she has helped design some of the most recognisable logos on the planet including Burger King, Hershey’s, Haagen Dazs, Tropicana and Gillette to name just a few. She has been named “one of the most creative people in business” by Fast Company, and “one of the most influential designers working today” by Graphic Design USA.As the founder and host of Design Matters, one of the world’s first and longest running podcasts, Millman has interviewed nearly 600 artists, designers and cultural commentators over the past 14+ years including Tim Ferris, Roxane Gay, Paula Scher, David Lee Roth, Stefan Sagmeister, Massimo Vignelli , Milton Glaser to name a few.Debbie is also President Emeritus of AIGA, one of only five women to have held the position in the organization’s 100-year history. She also an educator and co-founded with Steven Heller the world’s first masters program in branding at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, which has received international acclaim.Finally, she’s currently working with Law & Order SVU actor and activist Mariska Hargitay’s Joyful Heart Foundation to eradicate sexual assault, domestic violence, child abuse and the rape-kit backlog.___________________________________________Above all this what makes this talk so special is Debbie's openness to talk about the bumps in her career. From the outside, it looks like she has had a smooth ride has achieved all she has set out to do. The truth is far more interesting. She faced challenges at every step of the way and it is her ability to walk headlong into these and be prepared to put herself out there is the key to her success.There are a lot of fascinating stories in Debbie’s career and I was privileged to really dig into and draw out some really good lessons for all us to learn from. Stories such as how to recover from shame and rejection, ‘the slugfest’ as Debbie’s calls it, why she needed to start her podcast design matters to nourish her creative soul. We looked at how to handle bad bosses and the devastating impact it can have on your self-confidence, how desperation can sometimes be the best catalyst to push yourself over that difficult threshold and how to give ultimatums at work in order to get a promotion.I really hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did and find it as useful in your own journey.

Today I have Paul Sandip with us on Audiogyan. Paul is an international award winning product designer, alumni of (NID), Electrical Engineer and a Cartoonist. He has designed over 300+ iconic everyday objects in 121 product categories for clients across 14 countries. He is the Winner of Red Dot Award (twice!) and numerous international awards. In 2004 he created the Spherical Bulb Holder & Angular Multi-plug for GM Modular which became the most iconic best seller designs in India and have now become a standard for the entire electrical industry. And this was really a small introduction of a person who likes to call him designer of everyday objects. For more details you can visit paulstudio.in 1. Massimo Vignelli quoted, “if you can design one thing you can design everything”; that being true, don’t you think if you cover the width, depth can fall short? 2. You have been referred as industrial sculptor in a lot of places. What is it? How is an industrial sculptor different from industrial designer? What is the line that separates these 2? 3. What is your process of defining your style? How do you ensure that any product you design has a definitely Paul Sandip style / statement? 4. “Once you start selling the “designer” and not the design, objects become expensive.” Can you explain what do you mean by that? 5. Your design of the spherical bulb Holders have become a standard in the electrical product industry. Can you tell our listeners how did the product you made, bring so much impact in the electrical products manufacturing industry? 6. How do you identity an opportunity for design intervention?

Debbie talked to Massimo Vignelli about his favorite typeface, his fight against vulgarity and meaningless design, and what he means by forceful design.

"Certainly I have felt many times that I’m hovering over an abyss. But you have to make that leap over to  get to the other side." Kathy Brew, 64, is a self-defined, label-defying “hybrid:” a documentary filmmaker, public television producer, curator, teacher, and artful dreamer. After college, she stumbled on her first job making educational filmstrips  –remember those dreaded “hygiene” films in seventh grade?  Then in the early 80s, she left New York for California with her first husband and began her work in media and the arts in San Francisco. When she got an unsolicited grant of $5,000 she made her first award-winning film, “Mixed Messages,” about girls and proscribed gender roles, the first of many of her arts and social issue documentaries. “Design Is One,” about the renowned designers Lella and Massimo Vignelli, is one of the more recent that Kathy made back in NYC with the “love of her life,” documentary filmmaker Roberto Guerra .  Kathy envisioned  finding a partner who would be her “best friend, lover and collaborator.” And she found that in her 17-year relationship with Roberto. Still in the deep sorrow of losing Roberto in 2014, Kathy also dreams and feeds her undaunted creative spirit. She’ll soon be traveling to Peru as a Fulbright Scholar, teaching and making art, and continuing to unfurl her “out-of-the-box,” full and free life.

Debbie Millman is currently the Editorial and Creative Director of Print Magazine, but she has an insane track record going back decades: she’s the author of 6 books including “How To Think Like A Great Graphic Designer,” a prolific design writer in outlets like NYT, Fast Company, and Design Observer, chairs the Masters In Branding program at SVA (co-founded with Steven Heller), and hosts a long running podcast called “design matters” which has done 265 episodes over 10 years with legends and icons like Michael Beirut, Stephen Heller, Chip Kidd, Massimo Vignelli, Isaac Mizrahi and Malcolm Gladwell. Today on the podcast, * She says that “confidence is overrated.” This is something I know a lot of you struggle with and I love how she talks about this. Confidence is created by repeatedly doing something, and if you’ve never done something before how could you have confidence? Confidence - in her view - is the easy part. It’s finding the courage to do the thing when you DON’T have confidence that is the gamechanger. * The importance of teaching: why Milton Glaser said it’s the most important thing he ever did and why Debbie has always made it a big focus in her own career-- because as she says, when she teaches, the students teach HER * Why even hyper-achieving legends struggle with feelings of unworthiness and what the levers are for coping with it. This is a nearly universal thing that’s very rarely talked about, and it’s super important that you put your own mechanism in place to keep it from sabotaging your success. Enjoy!

For some of you, this may be most important podcast episode you ever listen to. I don't say that lightly. It has nothing to do with me and everything to do with my guest, who walks us through gripping stories, tactical details, humor, pain, and emotional redemption.

This is a podcast about the italian designer Lella Vignelli. Interviewed is her now late design partner and husband Massimo. »If you can design one thing, you can design everything.« The Italian architect and designer Lella Vignelli has turned her hand to every kind of project, from furniture, interiors, showrooms and exhibitions to product design, silverware and clothing. In the beginning of the 1960s she established the Vignelli Office of Design and Architecture in Milan together with her husband Massimo Vignelli. In the end of the decade the pair settled in New York and launched one of the world’s biggest design firms at the time, Unimark International. Lella Vignelli received AIGA’s Gold Medal in 1983. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We continue the interview with Ed Fella discussing the differences between art and design. Ed explains how we don’t have any problems with distinguishing art. But the general public does have a more difficult time telling the difference between a kind of ordinary conventional graphic design and stuff that’s special or that’s on a higher end. We wonder what Ed thinks about the 21st century graphic design, with a new global esthetic already emerging. We end this part talking on post-modernism versus modernism. In particular about his big debate with Massimo Vignelli back in the 1990s. Born and raised in Detroit we ask Ed about his feelings on the decline of the city. We also discuss the change in the usage of certain tools in the history of the profession, where we use more and more smart tools in stead of so called ‘dumb’ tools. Because Ed never used any digital means in his work, he feels he can’t compare a digital piece of work with an analog piece of work. We end the interview with Ed explaining why he would like to be a bodysnatcher… Recorded at the Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, California.

"The number one thing that we have to do in life, is be humble and learn that we have so much we can improve on...if you take off a little small thing here and there that you probably can improve, that's where you make the big gains. It's not one thing, it's always a number of little things. You scrape away, you scrape away, you scrape away – next you thing you know, you made a big dent." Matt Walker of Walk Design joins the show this week to talk about designing for the multi-million dollar fantasy sports industry. You may know him for his work on the Fantasy Sports line at ESPN, including the ESPN Tournament Challenge app, as well as the ESPN Fantasy Football iPad app. Matt's been working in interactive design since its infancy and up until mid-2014 was lead creative for ESPN's Fantasy Sports division. In this interview, we jump right in discussing digital design and the things that accompany it – including designing in code vs. designing in Photoshop, idea execution, wireframing, staying up-to-date with technology, over-designing, the perfect world's digital process and more. Matt and I also do a deep dive on what it takes to be professional consultant versus a freelancer or technician and touch on the tactic of positioning one's self to solve business problems rather than being a gun-for-hire. Finally we touch on the heated topic of ideas, their worthlessness without execution and just going out there on the Internet and starting something. Mentions include: Matt Walker Matt on Twitter 2013 ESPN Fantasy Football iPad App Massimo Vignelli Helvetica, The Documentary Joe Bosack Dan Simon, Studio Simon Rickabaugh Graphics Zach Grantham, Eden Creative Continuity Control where Matt just became VP of Design The next show's guests are principal & creative director, Bill Frederick, as well as senior designer & new media director, Michael Raisch of New Jersey sports branding agency, Fanbrandz.

We open this episode reflecting on Massimo Vignelli's death and the influence he had on our work through the years. This leads to a discussion on how the internet has changed our approach to design and how we view a design's longevity. We spend the second half of the episode discussing the public face of graphic design and the how we communicate the value of our profession to those who no nothing about design.

Today, The Trauma Therapist | Podcast shifts a bit. Today I’m interviewing world-renowned designer Debbie Millman who shares her story of courage, healing, and hope. I first heard Debbie on Tim Ferriss’ podcast and was struck by her candor, strength, and vulnerability. She was on Tim’s show to speak about her illustrious design career. However, at a specific point in the interview, the tone definitely changed when Debbie began sharing the story of her childhood. It was at that point that I was drawn in by the courage with which Debbie spoke about her past, her journey, and the hope she’s hung on to all these years. My hope is that we all can not only learn from her experience but as trauma workers, be inspired by the strength and hope in her words. Debbie Millman was named “one of the most influential designers working today” by Graphic Design USA, Debbie Millman is also an author, educator, brand strategist and host of the podcast Design Matters. As the founder and host of Design Matters, the first and longest running podcast about design, Millman has interviewed nearly 300 design luminaries and cultural commentators, including Massimo Vignelli, Milton Glaser, Malcolm Gladwell, Dan Pink, Barbara Kruger, Seth Godin and more. In the 11 years since its inception, the show has garnered over a million downloads per year, a Cooper Hewitt National Design Award and—most recently—iTunes designated it one of the best podcasts of 2015.  Debbie’s written and visual essays have appeared in publications such as The New York Times, New York Magazine, Print Magazine, Design Observer and Fast Company. She is the author of two books of illustrated essays: Look Both Ways and Self-Portrait As Your Traitor; the latter of which has been awarded a Gold Mobius, a Print Typography Award, and a medal from the Art Directors Club. Her artwork has been exhibited at the Boston Biennale, Chicago Design Museum, Anderson University, School of Visual Arts, Long Island University, The Wolfsonion Museum and the Czong Institute for Contemporary Art.  Debbie is the author of six books, including two collections of interviews that have extended the ethos and editorial vision of Design Matters to the printed page: How to Think Like a Great Graphic Designer and Brand Thinking and Other Noble Pursuits. Both books have been published in over 10 languages.
