A german motion designer animated a bunch of "op art" book covers - half of which are in this thread.
I'm currently helping install the new SFMOMA and there's a design show that includes some gorgeous posters for the italian typewriter company Olivetti. A quick GIS for their posters brings up some great stuff:https://fishinkblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/fishinkblog-1857-olivetti-2.jpghttps://fishinkblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/fishinkblog-1856-olivetti-1.jpg

Olivetti is one of the great designer-friendly companies of the 20th century, both their product-design and their marketing.
From that small but special pantheon which also includes Geigy and Container Corporation of America.

Still find it incredible that, from the early 1960s to the mid-1990s, British nuclear submarines were upholstered in William Morris Tudor Rose fabric. This sample from the HMS Talent. pic.twitter.com/AhNajKUZHf— Crystal Bennes (@crystalbennes) March 27, 2018

Just wanted some place to lament the failure of this Kickstarter. They were asking a lot and the guy is obscure but I don't think Unit has failed before. Check out the video, looked beautiful.
