Design Inspiration ::: Milton Glaser


photo by Deborah Feingold

I was revisiting an artist series directed by Hillman Curtis today after work slowed down a bit. They are truly some of the most inspirational films I’ve seen that focus on some of the biggest names in design and have impacted the world as we know it today (even if you’ve never heard of them).

Hands down, the most inspirational designer to me is Milton Glaser.

But what the video interview offers is a look into his philiosophy, how he looks at the world and why he’s stayed so passionate about design and teaching.

“None of us have the ability to understand our path until it’s over.”
“…because you have access to people’s minds and you communicate
to people…there is a corresponding responsibility…”
-Milton Glaser

  • I really enjoy reading Avery Smith | Design and Insights . It's very interesting. Hope you will post something like this again.
  • Wonderfull…
  • Nice work! I’ll have to do a cross post on this one ;)

    Great video. I found it very inspiring. Personally I had never heard about Milton Glaser, but I'm glad I have now. His thoughts about the importance of art in the community and about not losing interest have given me an even better reason than the one I had before to wake up tomorrow morning :-)
  • Danilo, I’m happy to see you found Milton Glaser so inspiring :) I recommend checking out his upcoming film and book!
