IBM Design Language - Motion
Posted on Jul 20, 2019
This animated video demonstrates IBM's Design Language, specifically focusing on motion. It uses abstract shapes, geometric forms, and typographic elements to illustrate principles of motion within the IBM Design system. The video is visually driven, relying on animation and music to convey its message.
With the launch of a new visual language, typeface and robust set of tools, IBM has taken the ambitious step of not only refreshing their brand but reinventing their entire approach to design. Its foundation is a philosophy that informs all of their decisions - a way of thinking about design, and the responsibility it holds. A team of our own self-identified design nerds partnered with the IBM Design team to develop this series of animations that live within the Design Language repository. Written, designed and animated with rigorous adherence to their system, each short illustrates and embodies the IBM Design Language, functioning as a bridge between principle and practice.
