who resists?

much kudos to the stedelijk museum for choosing french designer ‘pierre di sciullo’ to design the new stedelijk corporate identity, the competition was pretty stiff (irma boom, lust, pierre bernard and mevis & van deursen) so choosing a foreign designer for such a prestigious job has ruffled quite a few local feathers judging by what i’ve read on some blogs…
