Our starting point was to extend the core visual identity of this years "The Most Beautiful Swiss Books." We drew inspiration from the "Canons of Page Construction"the layout principles championed by the master of modern graphic design, Jan Tschicholdto develop a flexible visual language based on the geometric forms of the letters "MBSB." By employing this visual vocabulary rooted in Modernism, grids, and typography, we aim to evoke a sense of resonance with the Swedish audience through a shared appreciation for design craftsmanship.
