Base Design
[Sander Vermeulen]
Sander Vermeulen (Brussels, Belgium) joined Base Design in 2010 as design director. Base is an international network of studios led by creatives and is based in Brussels, New York, Geneva, and Melbourne. Sander is a graphic designer who co-designed Muoto (2021, 205TF), a variable sans serif font created by Matthieu Cortat, Anthony Franklin and Sander Vermeulen (Base Design). They write: Muoto is the synthesis of a sensitive and human approach to modernist design. This font combines full curves and solid stems, showing that functionalism can actually be warm and softly effective. With its robust structure and subdued proportions, it evokes organic forms dear to Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, who in 1957 wrote: "We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street". |
