Graphic designer, illustrator, educator, author and current World Graphic Design Foosball Champion, Paul Sahre established his New York studio in 1997. Consciously maintaining a small office, Sahre has nevertheless built a large presence in American graphic design. The balance he strikes between commercial and personal projects is evident in the physical layout of his workspace: part design studio, part silkscreen lab, part classroom. In one room he designs and prints posters (some now in the permanent collection at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum) for various off-off Broadway theaters, while in the other room he is busy designing book covers for authors such as Rick Moody, Chuck Klosterman, Ben Marcus and Victor Pelevin. Sahre is also a frequent contributor to the New York Times Op-Ed page. He is the author of Leisurama Now: The Beach House for Everyone, 1964–, a loving look at a short-lived product of early ’60s consumer optimism: affordable middle-class summer homes.
Sahre received his BFA and MFA in graphic design from Kent State and teaches graphic design at the School of Visual Arts. He is a member of Alliance Graphic International.
