Better Signs of Trouble?


Graphic designers’ ideas for an improved terrorism alert system. Check out this link at The New York Times website for a VERY interesting slideshow from some very notable designers. Interesting and insightful, and yes, a bit tongue-in-cheek too.

Paul Rand stated, a designer's job is to manipulate form and content...content is the idea, and form is what you do with this idea.

My thoughts: Was this really a good idea at all? The entire idea may be flawed.
