Overview

Since the school’s founding in the early twentieth century, Parsons has had the unique distinction of establishing the oldest graphic and communication design course of study in the United States. Over the past decade, the Communication Design program has developed a unique curriculum involving the integration of form-making, typography, and interaction. In addition, the program has seen tremendous growth from a population of a hundred students in a cluster of sections to close to five hundred across three undergraduate and graduate programs. 1, 10, 100 Years: Form, Typography, and Interaction at Parsons captures three distinct moments in time: the last year, the last decade, and the last century. Each moment serves as a retrospective on the evolving nature of the discipline as seen through the unique pedagogical lens and work of the teachers and students that form the Communication Design community at Parsons.
