“Even after the emergence of clean digital design, graphic artists still like to get their hands dirty. Poster Collection 11: Handmade presents both international and Swiss works whose makers have used their own hands for a variety of reasons — autonomy, spontaneity, independence, or delight in experiment. Contemporary, cutting-edge design arbiters like Stefan Sagmeister and Cornel Windlin show you how it’s done.” Lars Müller Publishers

As part of their marketing strategy, Kast + Ehinger, commissioned a selection of German designers to produce advertisements aimed at the design industry. I have scanned in quite a lot of their advertising matter, all of which were back-page advertisements from three German design magazines. Der Druckspiegel, Gebrauchsgraphik and Graphik – Werbung + Formgebung.
Theo Häussler's commercial art is distinguished by its clear and disciplined form and its distinct advertising message.
