Gary Hustwit is an American independent filmmaker and photographer. He may be best known for the Design Trilogy of documentaries, which examines trends in Euro-American graphic design, typography, industrial design, architecture, and urban planning. He told Dwell magazine, "I like the idea of taking a closer look at the things we take for granted and changing the way people think about them, whether it’s type or objects or whatever."
