Introduction
Kurt Wirth
An important reference in the history of Swiss graphic design, this official directory documents 137 members of the VSG (Verband Schweizerischer Grafiker). Based on the 1959 membership, each designer is presented with illustrated work samples, contact information, and areas of specialization.
The volume includes many key figures of postwar Swiss graphic design—such as Karl Gerstner, Armin Hofmann, Josef Müller-Brockmann, Richard Paul Lohse, and Walter Herdeg—offering a rare, contemporaneous overview of the practitioners who shaped the formative period of the “Swiss Style.”
