Happy Birthday tomorrow – 21st November – Mr Wim Crouwel!
One of the true, true legends of graphic design he is an innovator, a genius, my design hero and the, very obvious, inspiration behind the Bitique logo face – which is called Whim.

That makes him 81 years.. had the chance to meet him in April and had a little chat with him.. Couldn’t tell that Crouwel is already 81.. I guess Modernism is a good thing for mind, body and soul :)
