As well as showcasing work from young Swiss graphic designers, "Pathfinder" offers an itinerary through the regions, landscape and culture of a country that has a key place in graphic design history. A fold-out map offers a visual interpretation of the contemporary Swiss graphic landscape. The book features work from designers such as Happypets, Norm, Martin Woodtli, Benjamin Gudel, Marc Kappeler and Alex Sonderegger. Selected work is shown in environments that are significant for the designers or appropriate for the work - in the landscape, in a hotel room or in a car park.
