Wim Crouwel





This weekend I finally had a chance to visit the Design Museum for the Wim Crouwel retrospective - A Graphic Odyssey, now in it's last week. The exhibition captures key moments in his career including the identity for the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam along with his iconic poster, print, typography and exhibition designs. Crouwel's striking designs capture the essence of the emerging computer age of the 60's, but what I found most amazing was how his work hardly feels dated at all.
