The cover of the July/August 2004 issue of @Wallpaper, designed by Milton Glaser ❤️
The American doyen of graphic design who created some of the 20th century’s most influential visual identities including the ‘I ❤️ NY’ logo, died in Manhattan on Friday, 26 June 2020, on his 91st birthday.
Ever a believer in the power of design to inspire civic engagement, Glaser threw his creative muscle behind many social causes. In 1987 he designed the symbol and poster for the World Health Organization Special Programme on AIDS, intersecting two red hearts and turning the overlapping area in the skull to draw attention to the many lives that had been tragically lost.
In 2014 he turned his efforts to fighting climate change. With a simple green circle overwhelmed by a black gradient, and the slogan ‘It’s not warming // it’s dying’, benign language, and positioned environmentalism as an urgent struggle for planetary survival.
‘The role of the graphic artist today is the role of a good citizen, which is that you participate in the life of your times and try to improve the existing condition' - Milton Glaser (from a 2015 interview with @designindaba)
