Valentine Portable Typewriter by Ettore Sottsass http://www.moma.org/collection/browse_results.php?object_id=4576
Swissted is an ongoing project by graphic designer Mike Joyce, owner of stereotype design in new york city. Drawing from his love of punk rock and swiss modernism, two movements that have absolutely nothing to do with one another, mike has redesigned vintage punk, hardcore, and indie rock show flyers into international typographic style posters. Each poster is sized to the standard swiss kiosk dimensions of 35.5 inches wide by 50 inches high and set in Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk Medium, all lowercase. Every single one of these shows actually happened.
A rather splendid collection me thinks...
Another brilliant set by Sandi Vincent of Annual reports, Booklets, brochures and folders - the workhorses of corporate communications - from the 1950s and 1960s.
