In the fall of 2019, the Vignelli Center for Design Studies challenged our students to follow Vignelli design principles to create a product that incorporates their own definition of timelessness. The partnership celebrated the 10th anniversary of both the course and the Vignelli Center.

In keeping with the “Design is One” philosophy espoused by the Vignelli Center and recognizing that the Vignellis strived to create “timeless design,” 17 industrial design students explored the theme of “Design for Time.”

"Ten years of blending education and industry at RIT proves that leveraging the historical teaching tools houses in the Vignelli archives, our unique industrial design pedagogy and the practices of cutting-edge industry partners delivers pioneering answers to real-world design questions," said Josh Owen, Metaproject founder.
