More than a decade ago @designindaba filmed the 'In Studio With', series with 20 leading designers based in New York City, in their studios.

Here the late design maestro Massimo Vignelli shares his design manifesto. He was a Modernist designer dedicated to making society and the environment a better place.

“Design can not change society but it can make it better. Design can certainly make a great contribution to making environment better and that is what I have been striving for all my life,” he says

Massimo designed some of the most recognizable corporate identities such as American Airlines, IBM, Knoll and is also acclaimed for designing the iconic signage of the New York City Subway system. @VignelliCenter
