PORTLAND, Ore. (April 27, 2021) — Nearly a decade ago, a young design professional sat in an extension class at the University of California, Berkeley that focused on Stefan Sagmeister, the Austrian artist, typographer, and graphic designer. Sagmeister’s work has graced album covers for bands like The Rolling Stones and Talking Heads, and he has won Grammy Awards in design-focused categories. Wylie Robinson, the design professional who studied Sagmeister early in his career, eventually founded Rumpl. Today, Rumpl presents Sagmeister’s art to the world on a new canvas—the blanket. The product has an interesting backstory that boils down to a research project by Sagmeister aimed at finding universal agreements on beauty.
