March 2011
Wim Crouwel in London
March saw the opening of
Wim Crouwel: A graphic odyssey,
at London's Design Museum.
It's a fantastic exhibition offering
a vast overview of his work.
Wim is graphic design royalty
and thousands of designers have
been influenced by his work and
approach. We are no exception,
and took the opportunity to present
him with a gift whilst he was
in London.

In 2009 Paza recorded a lecture
that Wim gave in London. We
had the lecture pressed on 12"
vinyl. We then asked friends of
ours who had worked with Wim
over the years to answer a question
specific to their experience of him.

The answers were presented
in a booklet, packaged with
the vinyl in a gatefold sleeve
and presented to Wim on Friday
1st April at the Woodbridge
& Rees gallery.
