Signs, systems, and letterform marks serve as visual embodiments of our behaviors, beliefs, and institutions. They fulfill crucial roles by alerting us to potential hazards, guiding us through physical environments, offering us choices, and embodying the essence of various organizations. Despite the rich tapestry of our religious, political, social, and cultural backgrounds, universal signs, systems, and letterform marks possess the transformative power to unite humanity through effective communication.
Design students play a pivotal role in this ongoing process by continuously refining existing symbols and creating new ones. In doing so, they contribute to the establishment of a shared visual language that transcends barriers, ensuring accessibility for all.
