Back to Bauhaus Reading – notes and thoughts

Universal ‘language of vision’
Rational solutions through planning and standardization
Idiosyncrasy and customization
Bauhaus Legacy 1920s = basic geometric elements – universal instrument of the eye
Moholy-Nagy – art and designed being transformed by technology
The New Basics Designers – universal significance of describing visual form

 Beyond the Basics – Jennifer Cole Philips
Software now allows designers and users to edit their work
Rather than issuing instructions we frame problems and suggest possibilities
Experiment with visual language and design
Design thinking fuses a shared discipline with organic interpretation
