Estrid före Frank Hallen Sigtuna & Utopi Dystopi

Graphics for the exhibition ”Estrid före Frank” at Hallen Sigtuna, curated by Utopi Dystopi. The exhibition showcases a less familiar side of Estrid Ericsson’s work with Firma Svenskt Tenn, before Josef Frank arrived. These early years are characterised by a stricter design language, in comparison to the floral patterns that Frank introduced. Our typographical treatment of the exhibition title reflects the bauhaus-like shapes that were produced by the company during the first ten years. Accompanied by clean, clear, justified sans serif typography.
