Wallpapers, aphorisms & simplicity: aphorimplicity

Sometimes to relax a bit I open photoshop and I'll sketch some ideas and experiments. Sometimes one of them transforms into a nice wallpaper. Here, a set of three, with three great aphorisms by Gibson, Vignelli and Munari.

I was working on some materials in photoshop for a UI I’m designing and at some point I relaxed a bit working on three RGB wallpapers, 1680×1050. They are designed to be plain simple, with just an aphorism in the middle, written in one of my favorite fonts, Univers.

The red one is from Gibson: “The future is here. It is just not uniformly distributed”:

The green one is from Vignelli: “If you can design one thing, you can design everything”:

The blue one is about Munari: “Progress means simplifying, not complicating”:
