Urbanized: A Documentary Film by Gary Hustwit

In 2005 I began work on my first documentary, Helvetica, which looked at the worlds of typography and graphic design through the eyes of one loved/hated/ubiquitous little font. I wasn’t a designer, or even a filmmaker, just a design geek who really wanted to see a movie about fonts! After Helvetica was released in 2007, I had the idea for a second film, Objectified, which focused on industrial design and product design, and our relationship with the manufactured objects that surround us. But I realized there was more to explore, and had the initial ideas for a third film that would also examine how design affects our lives. So I began thinking of the films as a “design trilogy”.

Gary Hustwit è un grande. Ho avuto il piacere di curare la traduzione in italiano non ufficiale del suo primo documentario, Helvetica, e ho apprezzato anche il suo secondo bellissimo documentario, Objectified.

Ora sta cercando di raccogliere fondi su Kickstarter per la sua terza fatica: Urbanized, che concluderà la sua trilogia di opere.
