Olle Eksell


Wanted to share some treasure from Olle Eskell (1918-2007) the Swedish graphic designer today, the simplicity of line, colour and the wonderful humour. These Illustrations are taken from a book Olle Eksell Swedish Graphic Designer 2006 published by Pie Books (Japanese)

  1. Oh, I've seen this book in an online store and wondered what it was like (love the cover). Looks fantastic, I might have to buy it. The colours are great.

  2. It is a great book, the only problem being that the text is in Japanese, it would be good to be able to read it as well as see the images.

  3. It's the same problem with these beautiful books, have you seen them before? They're big in France and in Australia too :
