Is wayfinding design art? It is when the Museum of Modern Art celebrates the iconic subway signage designed by the late Massimo Vignelli in a popular exhibit. Designed in 1970, New York’s subway signage set new standards for clarity, simplicity and thoroughness. The straightforward but colorful signs influenced nearly every subway wayfinding project since.
