The Atelier Special Issue No.093 (1967)-covers the basics of graphic design, characterized by very clean modernist aesthetics through bright geometric shapes applied in colors of green, brown, purple, red, and white. These shapes contrast and balance, emulating the Bauhaus and Swiss design philosophies that emphasize clarity and function.The typographic conjunction of Japanese typefaces with English is indicative of the didactic intent of the periodical, while the asymmetrical text layout creates some liveliness without overshadowing the compositional unity. The design is a reflection of the synthesis of Western modernism through a distinctively avant-garde and totally Japanese spirit in the lens of 1960s graphic design.
