Connections Poster: Modernism on The Move   

Information Design, Poster, Visual Systems 
Sep 2025

The poster analyzes Herbert Matter’s New Haven Railroad identity as a modernist turning point in transport identity. Drawing on recognizable transportation elements such as arrows, speed lines, and subway signage, it traces how clarity, motion, and standardization circulate before and after this moment. Through information design and typography, graphic design is framed as an organizing system shaped by history and infrastructure, positioning design history as active rather than static.
