Odermatt and Tissi founded a renowned design studio whose “work has evolved from the rigorous
formality of the international typographical style to embrace a more playful and intuitive approach
inspired by post modernism” (Graphic Design & Designers, by Allan and Isabella Livingstone. Thames
& Hudson, 1992. P. 147). This nod to El Lizitsky is typical of their style, in which “unexpected
typographic elements are held in taut asymmetric balance by the subtle variations in type, weight and
color contrasts” (ibid). Odermatt & Tissi, p. 150.
