I am a design historian, writer and ex-graphic designer working in London and in Switzerland and interested in all things related to the discipline, including criticism, history and teaching. I am currently working at ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne (HES-SO) as a postdoctoral researcher and deputy to the Research & Development sector; I also work as a lecturer at Kingston University, London.
My current research includes two monographs – one on Herbert Matter and the other on Warja Lavater – and the co-edition of the anthology The Roots and Impacts of Jan Tschichold’s Die neue Typographie. The outcome of my research discussing the impact of the Swiss Design Awards on the graphic scene is available as a book in Open Access and in print.
