The career of Dutch designer Wim Crouwel (1928-2019) spans six decades and covers an extraordinary journey from designer, teacher, curator to museum director. Based on modernist principles, Crouwel’s lucid and systematic approach to design is underpinned by a grid-based methodology. His process, logical yet experimental, distils a subject down to its absolute essence and in doing so he achieves great impact and purpose in both his exhibition and print design.
