As a British citizen after WWII, [Henrion] designed publications, exhibitions, household products, interiors and jewellery, and in the 1960s he became the founding father of modern corporate identity in Europe. A very desirable volume. His reputation was already established when he designed KLMs identity in 1961, but it didnt stop the Dutch airline questioning his design. Apparently, KLM accepted the design only after protracted deliberation, considering it too advanced. It is perhaps testament to KLMs vision and courage that the symbol entered service at all, but the fact that it is still in use today even following KLMs merger with Air France in 2004 (to form Air France-KLM) is testament to Henrions simple, bold and undeniably modern design.

From the University of Plymouth press release on a Henrion exhibit: Frederic Henri Kay Henrion OBE (German / Englsih 1914 1990) was born in Nuremberg, Germany. Henrion studied at the École Paul Colin, Paris before emigrating to England in 1936, and adopted British nationality in 1946. Although possibly best remembered for his wartime posters, he was also responsible for introducing the concept of corporate identity to both Britain and indeed Europe. Beyond these areas, he worked as a highly influential exhibition designer and product designer, as well as in magazine and book design, jewelry design and painting. His firm Henrion Design Associates (1951), which became HDA International in 1972, did corporate identity projects for numerous leading international companies. He was the author/designer of AGI Annals (1990), and taught at the Royal College of Art and the London College of Printing. He was a president and frequently a board member of AGI, SIAD and Icograda. Henrion organized the annual Icograda Student Seminars in London (197490), an eagerly awaited event on the UK college calendar.
