I love Milton Glaser (cont.)

We all know that Milton Glaser has designed things in different fields. However, there is a small evolution in his style. According to Milton Glaser, in the early day, his works were perhaps more virtuosity which is a characteristic of youth. Over the last twenty years, he always tries to express complex ideas in simple designs. His later designs led to simplicity.

Milton Glaser’s discipline for design is “never touch the computer when designing”. He prefers to use pen and paper for building the concept of designs before moving to the complicated steps. "The difference between the brain and the computer has to do with the way the brain works by maintaining its fuzziness," Glaser said. His graphic style and illustration technique helped him become one of the most famous designers in the 20th century.

Here are some of his design works:
