Things We Love: “Schweizer Grafiker / Graphistes Suisses”

Flickr user insect54 has posted scans from classic graphic design book, Schweizer Grafiker / Graphistes Suisses, for all to enjoy.

Designed by Siegfried Odermatt this book features a spread on every member of the VSG (association of Swiss graphic artists). It features many of the great names in Swiss modernist design: Müller-Broockmann, Fridolin Müller, Nelly Rudin, Max Schmid, Siegfried Odermatt, Hans Neuburg, Richard Paul Lohse. It even lists their addresses.

"Microphone" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

Primavera - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

"Primavera" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

I sei sensi (The Six Senses) - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

"I sei sensi (The Six Senses)" - Alighiero e Boetti (Italian, 1940-1994)

Awesome stuff.

Awesome photo: “Cars – Tulsa, OK 2005″ by Dustin Aksland

I love this photo. I love it so much that I’m reposting it without permission. I know that’s really not so cool, but you know what? It’s just that great a photo.

p.s. Dustin, contact me if you want it down.
p.p.s.: Can I use it for album cover art? (If the answer is yes, say nothing.)

Note: I think there’s a gallery in Brooklyn where you can buy a huge C-print of it.
