Happy International Women’s Day!

In 1988, Japanese magazine Idea published a special issue “Women Designers of America.”  43 women are featured including Vignelli Associates’ own Lella Vignelli and Rebecca Rose.

This 1985 Annual Report for Girls Clubs of America, designed by Rebecca Rose, warning girls not to dream about finding a wealthy husband to take care of them.

Text: “When I grow up a rich man will fall in love with me and marry me and take care of me.” At Girls Clubs, girls learn that fantasies don’t come true except in fairy tales.

Scroll through to see more of this Idea Special Issue including the table of contents which lists all 43 designers featured in the issue. 

“The intent is to collect and present phenomena involving how and what activities women designers are engaged in the upheaval of the American society of today. Therefore, designers presented here had to be artists having the caliber in one sense or another approved by the severe eyes of the present American society.”

– from the intro essay by Midori Imatake “A Torrent of Women Designers of America”

«If you don’t find it, design it »

Lella & Massimo Vignelli

[vignellicenter]

“If you can design one thing, you can design everything.” 

The Vignellis were the rare type of designers who worked across all design disciplines and often for the same client. Our next round of Open Houses will focus on the theme “Design is One.” We’ll be focusing on the clients which the Vignellis did it all. Graphic identity and publications. Products and furniture. Interiors and exhibitions. See how “Design is One” comes to life through the archives. 

Want to see original artifacts from the archives but don’t know where to start? Join us at our Open Houses to have a look! No appointment required. Stay for a few minutes or stay for hours. 

As always, our galleries are open to the public and feature the greatest hits of the design work of Massimo and Lella Vignelli. But for the Open Houses, our archivist will be digging deep into the archives to show you one-of-a-kind original sketches and other artifacts of the Vignelli design process. You can see the designs that you know and love but expect many surprises even if you are a Vignelli “superfan!” 

Save the dates:  

9/20/2023-9/21/2023  

3/20/2024-3/21/2024

10am-4pm each day

Party Time with Creatives

List 5 creatives you would invite to a party.

Morag Myerscough - Born in Holloway, north London in 1963, Morag Myerscough is the multi-award winning creator of Studio Myerscough. Morag’s mantra is ‘make happy those who are near and those who are far will come’. Morag has always lived in the city and has been fascinated by how colour pattern and words can change urban environments and people’s perceptions of spaces into places. From schools and hospitals to cultural hubs and town centres, Morag transforms public spaces by creating engaging experiences for everyone.

Jessica Hische - Jessica Nicole Hische is an American lettering artist, illustrator, author, and type designer. After attaining a degree in graphic design and interactive design from Tyler School of Art, she worked with design firms like Headcase Design and Louise Fili. She was one of the first of a new generation of letterers and the present-day flourishing of the lettering arts can in part be traced back to her emergence.

Massimo Vignelli - Massimo Vignelli was an Italian designer who worked in a number of areas including packaging, houseware, furniture, public signage, and showroom design. He was the co-founder of Vignelli Associates, with his wife, Lella. He strictly adopted the Modernists tradition of design in his work and based his artwork on the idea of simplicity which manifested through his use of rudimentary geometric designs.

Claude Monet - Oscar-Claude Monet was a French painter and founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it. Throughout his long life, which spanned the years between 1840 and 1926, Monet would progress from drawing amusing caricatures of friends to capturing the elusive nuances of natural scenes in various attitudes of light and colour.

Walt Disney - Walter Elias Disney was an American animator, film producer and entrepreneur. A pioneer of the American animation industry, he introduced several developments in the production of cartoons. As a film producer, he holds the record for most Academy Awards earned and nominations by an individual.

What kind of location/food/dress code/style of party you would host?

Somewhere in Europe with a good view of nature, both plants and sea, and some civilisation/buildings. Maybe in the village or countryside with the dinner being on a balcony. The food would be a variety of European cuisine (France, Netherlands, Greece, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Spain) with a main meal, sides, desserts and drinks. The dress code and style would be spring themed, blossoming, elegant, refreshing, and peaceful.

Make a visual map/mood board of the event theme you would apply for this party.
