Kwadraat-Bladen was the brainchild of graphic designer Pieter Brattinga (1931-2004). He set out to prove that his family’s printing firm was the best in the Netherlands by publishing a journal that would surprise its readers with its radical content, unusual format, and state-of-the-art production techniques. Brattinga was a visionary: he was amongst the first to encourage designers to enter the print works and to collaborate with printers.
