Graph Paper (GZ198) is clean, minimalist and full of light. The fine gridwork is a reference to the sketchpads traditionally used by inventors, engineers and designers. McGrath transfers the abstract grids to the strap and dial, transforming them into an elegant homage to the process of design. The plastic strap shows the fine blue grid stretching from the white plastic buckle and loop to the white plastic case. The light blue grid extends across the entire surface of the dial. Clean, lean and gently ironic, McGrath’s Graph Paper (GZ198) debuted as part of Club’Art – The Graphics Collection by Swatch.
Much admired in the international community of graphic artists, designer Rory McGrath is a co-founder, with designer Oliver Knight, of the British design group OK-RM, based in London and New York. OK-RM has earned distinction through its work with art institutions, businesses, and other organizations, for which the group creates identities, printed matter, books, exhibitions, websites, and other media. McGrath also holds a position of Associate Lecturer at Camberwell College in London, as well as at University of the West of England.
