Deciphering Design – A State of English Design
English design team Miles Murray Sorrell FUEL is known at home and abroad for its radical designs. Most Miles Murray Sorrell FUEL projects combine photography with short texts, and contain a sharp critique of consumer society along with the firm’s characteristic sense of humor and vision for the future. And Rebecca and Mike take an approach to design that defies definition in existing categories like product and graphic design, and reveals new angles of the essential nature of the phenomena that lie before our eyes. The two partnerships may approach design from different angles, but both express their philosophy of communication and thoughts on design through their work. Because these qualities can be assessed objectively, they challenge the existing, tacit understandings of “aesthetics” that, never verbalized, have grown up around graphic design. 23 pages.
