Our Otl Aicher inspired passport cover is ideal to hold your passport plus up to three bank cards or rail tickets. Available in Dark Blue for you traditionalists and Bright Orange for those who want a completely non- traditional connotation free colour (unless you are Dutch of course)
The pictogram system, designed by Gerhard Joksch under the supervision of Design Commissioner Otl Aicher, originally for the Munich Olympic Games, was intended to be easily understandable and accessible to every visitor, irrespective of their native language. The visual identity for the Munich Olympics and the pictogram system has endured way beyond the 1972 Games. It is now considered a benchmark in visual identity and graphic design.
I already own the card wallet version, but I am sorely tempted by this passport cover.
I have feelings about these things. For me, where I’m from, at my age, those pictograms still signal promise and a new future.
