Swiss Style Forever?

• Lars Müller, Agnès Laube (host), Richard Hollis and Manuel Krebs

On the evening of May 5th in the Museum of Design Zürich, LM, RH and MK argued about the Swiss Style in graphic design. There was no answer concerning its future, of course. But there were many notions about its origins and history.

The panel offered lots of insights into this huge complex. If you want to delve further into this topic, there is a comprehensive book by RH about Swiss Graphic Design.

Jakob Bill, Max Bill’s son, and Johanna Lohse James, Richard Paul Lohse’s daughter, were among the audience. This evening had a particular smell of graphic design history attached to it, which was hard to deny.
