In these times when we are flooded with information, Woody Pirtle raises the issue of a designer's responsibility. His philosophy in designing is "the maximum in messages and the minimum in measures." A crystallization of Partle’s philosophy was shown with identity designs that convey original corporate messages, simple logotypes and annual reports from even before he joined Pentagram. A video showing his office and its surroundings also drew attention.
