My feelings towards modernism and postmodernism

My personal relationship to that of modernist deisgn is structured largely around Swiss deisgn and the Bauhaus. With a large emphasis being on that of typographical artists Muller Brockmann and Armin Hoffman. Grid work and balance is also a sentiment in which I feel expresses this deisgn movement, with a neutral palette and white backgrounds also being key factors.

Whereas when thinking about my personal relationship to postmodern deisgn it is much harder to categorize, as the boundaries of deisgn are pretty much open. With vast colours, asymmetrical shapes, and political thoughts coming to mind. My favorite artists of this genre being William Powhida and José Bernal.
