Dutch designer __________ combined the dada movement's playful vitality and de stijl's functionalism and formal clarity. he rejected both traditional symmetrical layout and de stijl's insistence on strict verticals and horizontals. instead he designed the space as a "field of tension" brought alive by rhythmic composition, vigorous contrasts of size and weight, and a dynamic interplay between typographic form and the background page.

I believe the correct answer is Piet Zwart.

Piet Zwart (1885–1977) was a Dutch photographer, typographer, and industrial designer. His work represents a playful mix of Constructivism, Dada and De Stijl styles (movements). Zwart was awarded the "Designer of the Century" award by the Association of Dutch Designers in 2000.
