new heritage

Rosmarie Tissi’s style has been evolving throughout her career: from pure functionality of the grid-based Modernist design to a very individualistic aesthetic with vivid colors, peculiar proportions and experimental layouts. Way too abstract for the “Swiss style”, her works also were too Swiss to be mistaken for something else — that trait Tissi shared with Wolfgang Weingart.
