Our Paperback catalogue with Lay-Flat Binding „Sheila Hicks. A little bit of a lot of things“, designed by @hubertusdesign has been awarded as one of @mostbeautifulswissbooks of 2025!
Sheila Hicks has made wool, linen, and silk her central media, pushing the boundaries of traditional textile art. Her works combine color, form, and material in novel ways and explore architectural dimensions. As a pioneer of textile conceptual art, Hicks has developed a distinctive visual language over six decades, from finely woven miniatures to monumental installations that open up new perspectives on the possibilities of art. This book contains views of Sheila Hicks’s exhibition a little bit of a lot of things at the Kunstmuseum St. Gallen as well as a conversation with the curator Rob Storr and an essay by Gianni Jetzer. It also documents a master class held by the artist in St. Gallen and contains previously unpublished images.

The 4th issue of NAGRA’s centenary magazine «500m+» explores how we deal with risk:
nuclear waste, deep geological repositories, existential threats, black swans — and the question of what societies choose to control, accept, or ignore.
Illustrated by @anna.haifisch who approaches the unthinkable with imagination rather than scientific explanation, visualising the absurd and the unpredictable throughout the entire issue.

… still painfully current!
Wo-Wo-Wonige! is a book about housing struggles, urban politics, and collective resistance in Zurich since 1968. Rooted in activism, tenant movements, and cooperative models, it documents how protest reshaped housing policy, urban life, and the imagination of the city. Award-winning in both content and design, the book stands as a precise typographic and historical record of a movement that refused speculation and demanded livable cities.
(Side note: the slogan “Wo-wo-wonige” now reappears on a contemporary FDP poster—an oddly displaced echo, considering its origins in left-wing housing activism.)

König Hirsch / King Stag 🦌 📚
…meeting Sophie Taeuber-Arp’s mesmerising marionettes one by one.
At the heart of it all lies the previously unpublished manuscript — full of local colour and subtle references — which shaped the rhythm and atmosphere of the book.
We fell in love with the richness and quiet humour of this 1918 Dada reinterpretation and tried to make the book itself feel like a small theatrical journey.
Hardcover, 256 pages

A true passion project. Designing this book felt like stagedesign: opening curtains, discovering scenes, meeting Sophie Taeuber-Arp’s mesmerising marionettes one by one.

We're thrilled to announce @larsmullerpublishers (LMP)—a Swiss independent publishing house renowned for its authoritative titles on architecture, design, and visual culture—is now a part of the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity.
This alignment unites two mission‑driven entities committed to championing design as a catalyst for positive change. By integrating LMP’s globally recognized editorial program with the Institute’s expansive collection, research, and educational initiatives, the combined organization will broaden public access to seminal ideas, objects, and publications that inspire creative inquiry.
Building on this foundation, LMP will be further strengthened by the continued active involvement of its founder, Lars Müller, who will actively guide the publishing program over the coming years. In addition, the founders of the acclaimed Zurich studio @Hubertusdesign —Jonas Voegeli and Kerstin Landis—are joining Lars Müller Publishers, bringing internationally recognized expertise in editorial and visual communication to enrich future projects.
“We are pleased to enter this new chapter in collaboration with the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity,” says Lars Müller. “This partnership will nurture the editorial independence, intellectual rigor, and design ethos that have long defined our work, while also creating new opportunities for purposeful publishing.
