TODAY IN DESIGN 1958

The Birth of the Peace Symbol: Gerald Holtom's Iconic Design.

In 1958, the peace symbol, a powerful emblem of protest and harmony, was brought to life by British designer Gerald Holtom. Commissioned by the Direct Action Committee as part of their campaign against the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment, Holtom's design quickly transcended its initial purpose. The symbol, incorporating the semaphore signals for "N" and "D" to represent nuclear disarmament, became a universal sign for peace, embraced by anti-war and civil rights movements around the world. Holtom's creation illustrates the profound capacity of design to communicate complex messages and unite people across diverse backgrounds in a shared pursuit of peace.
