About the film

MAU is the first, feature-length documentary about design visionary Bruce Mau. The film explores his unlikely creative journey and ever-optimistic push to tackle the world’s biggest problems with design. Over the span of his career, this creative dark horse has completed the transformation from world-class graphic designer to designer of the world – advising global brands like Coca-Cola and Disney. Rethinking a 1000-year plan for Mecca, Islam’s holiest site. Working with the greatest living architects like Rem Koolhaas and Frank Gehry on books and museums. Rebranding nations such as Guatemala and Denmark. In short, Bruce Mau is a pioneer of transformation design and believes that design can be used to create positive change in our world.
