Monte Albán, Anni Albers (1936)

Anni Albers' Monte Albán explores graphic design through its grid-based structure, abstraction, and modular repetition, which mirror the principles later seen in modernist typography, Swiss-Style graphic design, and digital interfaces.  By simplifying architectural motifs into geometric patterns, Albers blurred the lines between textile art and visual communication, influencing layout design, information graphics, and minimalism in design. Albers' textile work demonstrates that patterns, hierarchy, and rhythm—core elements of graphic design—could transcend mediums, shaping the evolution of both print and digital aesthetics.
