Unpublished Peter Seitz

Peter Seitz

The folks at Kind Company made me aware of this Flickr set featuring work from Peter Seitz that wasn’t published in the book, Peter Seitz: Designing a Life. I wasn’t aware that he designed the Braun letterhead under the direction of Otl Aicher. Very nice.

’72 Munich Olympics Merchandise Catalog

Munich '72 merchandise catalog

Saw this ’72 Munich Olympics Merchandise Catalog over at the Creative Review blog and thought it was pretty neat. When we think of the Munich Olympics identity, we always think about the great posters, brochures and programs, but in fact there was a ton of other items that were just as great. Love those striped tote bags. All of these other goodies, along with this catalog, were created by the German firm, Fahnen-Fleck.

Braun Brochures

Braun Brochures

I stumbled upon these Braun brochures on the Das Programm’s Flickr and I love them. There are two distinct designs at work here, but they’re both well-done. Great photography, color and the product is king. Wish I knew who designed these, but if I had to guess I’d say they were done by Wolfgang Schmittel. Anyone know for sure?
