The show is excellent, is well directed and very well produced, but what I like the most is the very honest way to present the persons behind the work, they are not presented in typical PR or marketing way, they are presented as humans with some gifts and some struggles, their stories are truly inspiring mostly because are not fantastic or heroic, just because they are very human.

anyone who loves art, or an art student, or an artist has to watch this series... 8 different artists way of thinking, way of living... and how they do and describe their art... a fantastic 6 hours full with art and love and passion... be sure you will not regret... just watch it... and make your kids watch it also...
Season 1 was amazing, each episode was fascinating and the story telling of design is riveting. However, season 2 has become a documentary about people and social issues instead of design itself. This is very sad and disappointing. I can't even finish half of the episode about Ruth Carter who is a costume designer...
This documentary series searches the proceess and the purpose of design arts at a very high level. It also cares about the people and artists it portrays, often digging into their personal lives. The subject matter and how they are portayed and explored are always impactful and worthwhile. The themes are applicable in the very minutae of the specific art sphere explored, bur also philosophic, personal, profound and open-ended to be applicable in life and daily thoughts.
Mostly, these are inspiring profesional stories and riveting information on the works and behind-the-scenes stories of some of the top innovators in their fields. These people are changing the world. Thank you for the series to put such a deserved spotlight on these worthile topics.
After 2 seasons, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi's 2 episodes and showrunner Morgan Neville's 3 episodes are stellar, but even a lesser episode is of high quality and insight. Learn about Architecture and Bio-Architecture and how Typecast is much more complicated than you probably think. What is Design FOR play and how can that possibly change our future? Watch Abstract: the Art of Design and with your family and friends to find lots to discuss and discover.

It is fascinating to see this sort of focus applied to the creation of what we might otherwise take for granted, and appreciate not just the art, but the artist behind this work.
