Testimonials

“The collaboration with Hoang and David was characterised by great openness right from the start. […] The joint brochure project was a lot of fun while meeting all deadlines and commitments. Hoang and David also have great expertise in materials and printing processes, as a client I have always felt very well advised.” [translated] (Susanne Häberle, University of Vienna)

“It was a pleasure to work together. I always looked forward to our conversations, and I learned something from each step in the revision process. Hoang and David were efficient, reliable, carefully attentive to the details and ready to offer multiple solutions to every problem. I hope we can continue working together in the future!” (Russell Perkins, Artist)

“Although the skill with which it has been crafted stands out, it does not descend into art pour l’art. It is rare for typography to be executed with such love and joy, and rare for it to be accorded so much time and space.” (Swiss Federal Office of Culture on The Future Tense)

“Hoang Nguyen and David Gobber design courage for the future by giving utopias a concrete form to look at.” [translated] (FuturZwei, Foundation for Sustainability)

“Beyond Concrete was a great challenge due to the extremely diverse contributions. Nguyen Gobber, together with the Basel graphic designer Bosco Ferreira, mastered this challenge brilliantly and created a great book. The collaboration was cooperative, professional and very inspiring.” (Barbara Lenherr, FHNW Institute of Architecture)

“With Hoang and David, the V# magazine was in good hands right from the start, because they combine inspiring design ideas, a clear organisation and an orientation towards the wishes of the client.” (Amos Postner, Author and Editor)
