The Vignelli Canon.Pdf THE VIGNELLI CANON THE VIGNELLI CANON Massimo Vignelli We thank our friend Sheila Hicks This book is affectionately dedicated to Lella, for her assistance in editing of the text. my wife and professional partner. Together we shared our intellectual experiences Book design: Massimo Vignelli with Beatriz Cifuentes and growing process from the very beginning of our professional lives. Her creative intuition and sharp criticism have enriched my life and have been the structural strength of our collaboration, without which my work would have been worth much less. 4 Josheph Müller-Brockmann Introduction At the request of the publisher of this book I started to look in to the meaning of such a publication and recognized that it could become a useful instrument for a better understanding of typography in Graphic Design. This little book reveals our guidelines - those set by ourselves for ourselves. In several teaching situations I remarked the lack of some basic typographic principles in young designers. I thought that it might be useful to pass some of my professional knowledge around, with the hope of improving their design skills. Creativity needs the support of knowledge to be able to perform at its best. Federico Gene It is not the intention of this little book to stifle creativity or to reduce it to a bunch of rules. It is not the formula that prevents good design Willy Fleckhaus from happening but lack of knowledge of the Alan Fletcher complexity of the Design profession. It’s up to the brain to use the proper formula to achieve the desired result. With great pleasure I look back to all the moments when I learned something new in typography, either from a Master or from fellow practitioners. To have learned about disciplined design from my Swiss fellows, to have learned about the white space from my American fellows, to have learned Fletcher Alan about the forceful impact of type from my German fellows, to have learned about wit from my English fellows, and then even more from fellows everywhere. That beautiful feeling of enrichment that comes from new discoveries, new ways of doing the same thing better than before. It is my hope that this book may provide that feeling, or in any case confirm and reaffirm those guidelines that we designers love to set for ourselves. 6 Part One Semantics The Intangibles Syntactics Pragmatics Discipline Appropriateness Ambiguity Design is One Visual Power Intellectual Elegance Timelessness Responsibility Equity 8 Semantics I have always said that there are three aspects in the semantic search through a complex process, Design that are important to me: most of which is intuitive, to infuse the design with Semantic, Syntactic and Pragmatic. all the required cognitive inputs, effortlessly and in the most natural way possible. It is as in music, Let’s examine them one at the time. when we hear the final sound, without knowing Semantics, for me, is the search of the meaning of all the processes through which the composer whatever we have to design. has gone before reaching the final result. Design The very first thing that I do whenever I start a without semantics is shallow and meaningless new assignment in any form of design, graphic, but, unfortunately it is also ubiquitous, and that product, exhibition or interior is to search for is why it is so important that young designers the meaning of it.

I begin by raising a problem related to one traditionally found within some of the philosophical literature regarding moral egalitarianism: that of partiality and friendship, except that I raise the issue of partiality within the context of one’s close relationships. From here I propose a solution to the problem based on understanding a close relationship as one in which friends possess the attitude of openness to the development of the relationship. The remainder of the dissertation is concerned with elaborating upon and explaining this conception of friendship and its consequences. In the course of doing this I propose a theory of the self and how we relate to one another, consider the importance of the psychophysical self, explore the notion of mutual recognition, reflect on relationship’s end, and, finally, explore the connections between friendship and play.

  • Consuming Fashions: Typefaces, Ubiquity and Internationalisation
    CONSUMING FASHIONS: TYPEFACES, UBIQUITY AND INTERNATIONALISATION Anthony Cahalan School of Design and Architecture University of Canberra ACT ABSTRACT Typefaces are essential to a designer’s ability to communicate visually. The late twentieth century witnessed the democratisation and internationalisation of typeface design and usage due to the ease of access to desktop computer technology and a related exponential growth in the number of typefaces available to users of type. In this paper, theories of fashion, consumption and material culture are used to explain and understand this phenomenon of the proliferation of typefaces. Theories are explored from outside art and design to position typeface designing as an activity, and typefaces as artefacts, within a more comprehensive societal picture than the expected daily professional practice of graphic designers and everyday computer users. This paper also shows that by tracking and thereby understanding the cultural significance of ubiquitous typefaces, it is possible to illustrate the effects of internationalisation in the broader sphere of art and design. CONSUMING FASHIONS: TYPEFACES, UBIQUITY AND INTERNATIONALISATION Technological and stylistic developments in the design, use and reproduction of text since the invention of the alphabet three-and-a-half thousand years ago were exponential in the last two decades of the twentieth century, due significantly to the ready access of designers to the desktop computer and associated software. The parallels between fashion and typefaces—commonly called ‘fonts’— are explored in this paper, with particular reference to theories of fashion, consumption and material culture. This represents the development of a theoretical framework which positions typeface design as an activity, and typefaces as artefacts, within a broader societal picture than the expected daily professional practice of graphic designers and everyday computer users.

The Web provides an extremely large volume of texts in many languages. However, a number of problems have to be resolved in order to create collections (text corpora) which are appropriate for application in natural language processing. In this work, two related problems are addressed: cleaning a boilerplate and removing duplicate and near-duplicate content from Web data.

  • Massimo Vignelli
    Massimo Vignelli Alexander Fusté Studio I Fall 2014 Massimo Vignelli, born and raised in Italy, brought to America a new style of minimalist and grid based design. Massimo did so with his wife and business partner Lella Vignelli. He began designing professionally in 1950 and never stopped until he passed on May 23, 2014.1 He and his team created the faces of some of the most iconic and well known branding and designs in the world. Because their philosophy of design isn’t limited to just graphic design, they focused on many projects in many fields throughout their career. Because, to the Vignelli’s, “If you can’t find it, design it.”2 Massimo’s interest in Graphic Design began in Italy pre his marriage to Lella. It was here that he realized that he wanted to continue his life pursuing ‘good design’ in America with Lella. This idea of ‘good design’ was not simply limited to graphic design. Vignelli says in his book “Design is one” that “subjects change, materials change, processes change, but the creative and investigative mind proceeds relentlessly”.3 This process is applied to all created objects. After he arrived in America he cofounded Unimark and was the design director.4 This was a great starting point for Vignelli and gave him many opportunities. However, it was when he and Lella founded Vignelli Associates, did they really skyrocket to the design superstars they are today. 5 Massimo worked on a basic grid system throughout his the career. Why the grid? Because Massimo believed that good design is timeless and the grid will 1 AIGI.

After working in the Bay Area for fourteen years, Brew returned to her native New York in 1994 to begin work as an Associate Producer for “City Arts,” Channel 13’s Emmy-award-winning program on the visual and performing arts. While working on that series, Brew met her husband, Roberto Guerra, an accomplished filmmaker and longtime friend of the modernist designers Lella and Massimo Vignelli. In 2014, Roberto Guerra passed away on Massimo Vignelli’s birthday, January 10, after a six-month fight with pancreatic Photograph by Ana de Orbegoso cancer. Just months later, Massimo died at his home in Manhattan. He was 83. The last film that Brew made with her late husband, Design Is One: Lella & Massimo Vignelli, was created from footage that captures the Vignellis full of vim and verve, before health complications began to interfere with their ability to work. Along with Helvetica—a documentary film about Massimo Vignelli’s favorite typeface—Design Is One has helped catapult the Vignellis to a new level of public consciousness. After interviewing the Vignellis and former co-workers, Brew and Guerra compressed almost fifty years of work by the creative couple into the eighty-minute feature film, introducing many to the duo that helped shape America’s typographic urban landscape and the entire field of design in the latter half of the 20th century.
