It’s been a long while since we last checked in with Swiss studio Claudia Basel, and they’ve got a veritable truckload of work on their website to show for those intervening months (and years). Still more than capable with posters, publications and all aspects of the print process these guys now have cultural institutions, fine artists, fashion designers and theatres all knocking on their door for a piece of their superbly executed bold and experimental graphic design. Long may it continue.

A black and white poster featuring a grainy, high-contrast image of a traffic cone. Text wraps around the edges of the image, including the headline “Liste 18 – The Young Art Fair in Basel – June, 2013 11–18”.
