Design for the Information Age

In my opinion it is around this period in design history where the most beautiful work begins to appear. I find that especially ironic due to the fact that I believe a designer must be an artist. And the reason for the irony is that self expression was omitted entirely. Engineering and information progression became increasingly important in design this I am not opposed to infact my position is contrary I feel that designers should be actively involved in understanding engineering and technology but an artist is fully capable of doing so. There is no reason for an engineer to be a graphic designer in my opinion. However they should work hand in hand with them. It is that precise equation that move us forward to find solutions to problems that we face.

Helvetica has sugar coated some of the worlds most destructive corporate leaches. That upsets me greatly and it is to say the least, dangerous. I do not like it. I completely agree with Erik Spiekerman.
