Also during our meeting Paul asked me a very important and significant question...




What is the point ... of my project?


I tried to jot down a few answers 
- influences
- quotes
- appealing
- simplicity (but the designs looks like they take a lot of time ect to complete).


Paul also asked why do you want to pursuit this as your project?


And my main asnwer and aim was I wanted to prove Darren's theory wrong, that Modernism hasn't failed ... okay yes we don't work like Josef Muller-Brockmann or Adrain Frutiger (Modernists) but it has had and effect actually an last effect to how graphic designers work for example using the grids systems, typefaces, tyopgraphy etc. 


Other suggestions 
Ask companies or graphic designers who work like modernists some questions that may help
either by email, interview in person, skype etc.


just to name a few:
- Adrian Shaughnessy
- Build 
- the art of the grid
