The Virtuous Book - Design As Art

**Project Title:** *Design Dialogues: A Visual Reconciliation*

This book presents a dual narrative by juxtaposing excerpts from Bruno Munari's *"Design as Art"* with insights from Paola Antonelli's 2007 TED Talk *"Treat Design as Art."* Through a blend of black and white imagery and Bauhaus-inspired visuals, I created a slightly chaotic aesthetic that challenges traditional design boundaries. The visual composition deliberately overshadows Munari's outdated and misogynistic perspectives, allowing Antonelli's more progressive and inclusive views to dominate. The project serves as a commentary on the evolution of design philosophy, highlighting the importance of contemporary voices in reshaping our understanding of art and design.
