Spassky Fischer
This book is an invaluable study of the Swiss architect Peter Märkli by the Italian architect Giorgio Azzariti. However, what caught our attention at PAGE SPREAD was the book design by the French graphic design studio Spassky Fischer.
Its typography and layout resonate beautifully with Märkli’s ideas of proportion, translating the order and tension created through proportion into the language of the printed page. This is a remarkably accomplished publication that transcends the label of minimalist book design.
