When I die, bring me coffee, and you’ll see me rise like Lazarus,” said renowned playwright Eduardo De Filippo who, like any good Neapolitan, would never have turned down a cup of coffee.

Massimo Vignelli

Given all the objects designed by Massimo Vignelli that are located in New York and its museums, we decided to publish a not-so-well-known drawing he made in the early 1990s, when he decided to stop “being a fashion victim” and create his own clothing line. The drawing and accompanying text are taken from Designed by Lella, an electronic book he assembled a few months before dying to celebrate his lifelong partnership with his beloved wife. He made the book available in pdf format free of charge.

Letizia Airos

Italian design legend Massimo Vignelli--best known to newyorkers for his map of the NYC subway in the 1970s, now on display at MOMa--died on May 27, 2014.
Two years since his passing, we remember a man, a friend, and a great designer who left his Italin-style traces throughout the city. Vignelli worked in a wide range of fields, including interior design, environmental design, package design, graphic design, furniture design, and product design. His clients at Vignelli & Associates included high profile companies such as IBM, MTA, Poltrona Frau, Knoll, Bloomingdale's and American Airlines.

Starbucks! Just an American Coffee Bar
