Sweet Swiss studio Claudiabasel have a deliciously diverse portfolio

Date

Not only are the Swiss good at producing luxury time-tellers but they’re also very good at graphic design. Claudiabasel, a small studio of designers who met while studying at the HGK Basel, have been producing an impressive amount of work that differs from contemporary layouts and strong images to more traditional looking design with strong type and flat colours. It’s their diverse range of locally-based clients, like architecture schools, theatres and fashion designers, that have allowed them to continually experiment visually and try different forms. Even though not in my (very limiting) mother tongue, it’s all so striking that becomes completely irrelevant.
