Chris Ashworth is a British graphic designer and typographer, who gained prominence in the 1990s through his art direction of Ray Gun magazine, where he developed his distinctive "Swiss Grit" style—a fusion of Swiss typographic precision with raw, handcrafted textures.
Chris has worked with major brands and artists such as MTV, New Order and Nike Tokyo . He has held senior creative roles at Getty Images, Nokia, and Microsoft, where he led global brand initiatives for products like Windows and Microsoft Surface.
In addition to his corporate work, Chris co-founded Thisisme.art, an art venture celebrating handcrafted creativity. His recent publication, Disorder: Swiss Grit Vol II, showcases over three decades of his design, typography, and photography, which we are very excited here at Blueprint to hear about at this artist talk.
There will be local beer, wine and spirit avialable throughout the evening, as well as a few copies of Disorder: Swiss Grit Vol II available to purchase.
