Design is One: Lella & Massimo Vignelli

A graceful, understated documentary that celebrates the work and philosophy of two of the most influential designers of the 20th century. Known for their clean, modernist aesthetic - from the iconic New York City subway map to branding for American Airlines. What really stayed with me was their sense that design isn’t about decoration or trends but about making the world more beautiful and functional through thoughtful, intelligent solutions. I was also fascinated to learn how their shared values and approach shaped everything from modern furniture to packaging to architecture. It’s a quiet but inspiring portrait of two designers who saw no boundaries between disciplines - only opportunities for better design.
