Hannes Wettstein
Seeking Archetypes
The life work of the designer will now be documented and honored in a monograph for the first time. The 292 page book, which was conceptually designed by Studio Hannes Wettstein, presents photos from Wettstein's world - works, sketches and personal objects. Their diversity makes the essence of his productions tangible and clarifies his design philosophy. Thanks to a comprehensive catalogue with over 300 pieces of work, the monograph can be used as a point of reference. Supplemented with quotes from Wettstein, anecdotes about his life, as well as statements from personalities within the design and architectural scene, «Hannes Wettstein Seeking Archetypes» presents a complex portrait of an extraordinary designer.
