Systems is an exhibition of commissioned poster designs, complemented by displays of original products and archive material of ‘60s Braun products. For Systems14, twenty-four Asian based designers and studios were invited to produce A0 poster designs on the theme of Braun Design. Apart from format and the requirement to communicate the exhibition date and location, the brief was left as open as possible. The idea was to gather an informal survey of Eastern views on mid 20th century European modernism. Designs were submitted from places as far apart and culturally distinct as South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Thailand and Malaysia.

Mirroring the systematic character of Braun Design and its universe of timeless products, this poster for the systems14 exhibition is based on one of the earliest systems ever formed — the solar system, with elements of Braun products representing planets.
