transitmaps: explore-blog: “We’re all going from point A to point B – how we get there is the conductor’s problem.” Legendary designer Massimo Vignelli, mastermind of the iconic NYC subway map, on clarity and design and the story of his creation.  Love this photo. Even at 81, Vignelli is clearly passionate about his work. It’s easy to forget that the design of a subway system is architectural art.
