Description«As the title “Grammo-Grafik” suggests and as we plainly see the circular shapes on the poster represent a vinyl gramophone record, yet abstracted like this it becomes a kind of super symbol for music itself and a very beautiful image in its own right. The graphics themselves have something Dieter Rams / Braun about them but the date is earlier which suggests to me that the designer was ahead of his time. I would happily hang this on my wall if I could.»
Jasper Morrison
