Barbara Stauffacher Solomon
Barbra was total icon. She was a leader in super graphics and in the male dominated industry of graphic design.
She actually lost her first husband which made her move to Switzerland to study under Armin Hofman. She did this so that she could feed her daughters. She studied graphic design, landscape architecture and fine art. Her style was very Swiss Modernism meets groovy California beach culture. Her super graphics really showed that mesh of the two different design styles.

I think it’s a super creative way to decorate a very simple thing by painting the walls. It really makes the architecture as a whole because without it the interior would feel very empty. The style of California meets swiss modernism is very clever as well. It’s cool to see her apply her roots and what she learned in Switzerland.
