Metacritic reviews

Kathy Brew and Roberto Guerra’s documentary boasts an economical sleekness that’s in tune with the designers’ concepts.

The information-rich film is enlivened by the charm of the intelligent, eccentric couple at its heart.

You may not recognize the Vignelli name, but you certainly recognize their designs.

Good design rests at the intersection of function and beauty. Design Is One, alas, has far too little of the latter.

Haphazard and on the edge of half-hearted, the documentary always feels like a sketch rather than a finished design.
