Example 9 Hans Neuburg

 

Neuburg, Hans. "Zürcher Künstler - Kunsthalle Basel". 1966

Neuburg is yet another recognizable figure from the Swiss/International design movement. He worked alongside other big names like Richard Paul Lohse, Joseph Müller-Brockmann and Carlo Vivarelli where together they published the "Neue Grafik" magazine. 

Neuburgs work experiments with the use of geometric overlapping shapes, sans serif typeface, and asymmetrical layouts which are a few notable characteristics of Swiss design. This piece specifically interests me with the use of triangles. The simplistic design and the overlapping colors that creates another triangle is minimalistic yet intriguing. I believe this piece embodies Swiss design well and would be interesting to use for my poster ideas.
