When we reflect on the 1980s at Vignelli Associates, we can’t help but think about the work of Michael Bierut.
Before joining Pentagram, he worked with the Vignellis’ from 1980-1990. The 1980s was the decade of Michael Bierut.
Here is a series of posters he designed for the Architectural League of New York for their lecture series Emerging Voices: Young Architects and their Work.
Today is 8/8/18 and it’s also time for this month’s #ArchivesHashtagParty hosted by the National Archives and Northwestern University’s Transportation Library. With all these eights, what could be more fitting than an #Archives80s theme. Archives, libraries, and museums (and you can too!) are sharing their 80s-themed artifacts! (That includes 1780s, 1880s, or 1980s).
