Cipe Pineles

Cipe Pineles was an editorial designer that was most well known for her wok on Seventeen magazine, Vogue, Charm, and Vanity Fair. She was the first women to be asked into the all-male New York Art Directors Club. Pineles career lasted over 60 years and elevated the magazine industry through her innovative design work.

I really like her work and the muted, romantic colours that are used in her covers for Seventeen magazine and Charm magazine. I also really love her illustrations that she did in her cookbook. Her illustrations are charming and I enjoy the usage of texture in her organic forms. I also like how she’s treated the type, including it in her illustrations and integrating it into her designs.
