30 Years of Swiss Typographic Discourse
By Louise Paradis, Roland Früh, Francois Rappo, & ECAL

30 Years of Swiss Typographic Discourse in The Typografische Monatsblätter examines the Swiss typography magazine’s publication between 1960 and 1990. A period that saw dramatic transitions in graphic design practice and production, this volume chronicles the many movements that coincided with this transformatory time. 30 Years of Swiss Typographic Discourse features lesser known works by designers Emil Ruder, Wolfgang Weingart, Dan Friedman, Hans-Rudolf Lutz, Helmut Schmid, among many others. Showcasing the diversity of the ‘Swiss’ style and its global influence. A must-read for any typophile or designer looking to expand their typographic context.
