Listen Later

Steff Geissbühler was Partner and Principal at Chermayeff & Geismar for 30 years where he designed some of the worlds most memorable logos and identities.

In this interview we go back through significant times in the designers life, including how he became a professor early in his career, how he was hired by Ivan Chermayeff and Tom Geismar, and how he eventually went on to develop C&G Partners before founding his own design practice, Geissbühler:Design.

At C&G, Steff designed iconic logos including NBC and Time Warner Cable. We discover the process that went into designing the logos, and unravel what happened behind the scenes at one of the world most famous design agencies.
