With the concept book ‘Tribler’, Büro Destruct is breaking new ground, yet ultimately finding its way back to its roots!

The book ‘Tribler’ documents and catalogues the fantasy world of the legendary Tribler clan, whilst also reflecting – in its usual humorous style – on the collective’s own approach as a graphic design collective. In ‘Tribler’, Büro Destruct concocts a graphic potion with potent essences of vector graphics, a tablespoon of character design and a pinch of typographic design approaches. Finally, the Bern-based graphic designers also offer an insight into their origins and sources of inspiration, delving deep into the archives of their work from the last 20 years. It’s well worth digging in! With a foreword by Gregor M. Wildermann.

Founded in 1994, the Büro Destruct collective is regarded as a pioneer and trailblazer of modern Swiss graphic design. If one were to briefly summarise the qualities of Büro Destruct, they would likely lie in creating futuristic and digitally inspired design solutions that simultaneously convey a sense of craftsmanship and relaxed ingenuity.
