Philographics: The Design of Philosophy

2

Spain-born, London-based graphic designer Genis Carreras — that’s right, dude’s name is one letter short of spelling “genius” — recently published a neat journal called “Philographics,” which attempts to explain various philosophical perspectives through painstakingly simple (ahem, minimal) designs and a paragraph of descriptive text.

I think there’s something  refreshing about this concept, although the overuse of minimal-this and minimal-that online these days makes me yawn. (That Carreras is attempting to educate rather than simply drive pageviews might be the key to my appreciation.)

Check out the entire set on Behance.

    I’m happy for philosophical perspectives to be described through minimalist designs- it’s fairly interesting; however, I am curious as to why the Petrine Cross (emblematic of faith and humility, within Catholicism), should be emblematic of atheism.
