Type + Image Posters

Typographic

These three posters each implement the same story—“The Cab Ride I’ll Never Forget” by Kent Nerburn—in different ways, combining layout and image to pull out different feelings from the work. For this project, one of the posters was allowed to be illegible, hence the overlapping nature of the third installment.

Typographic Poster

Typographic

This project asks you to create something visual using nothing but the written word. Thus this self-written poster blends together different layers of text to weave together meaning and lend depth to certain phrases. The front and back layers actually come from different poems written at different times, but they flow together nicely here.

Creative Cause Poster

Typographic

The “Creative Cause” project asks you to “design your passion.” Thus this poster evokes a dreamlike state with imagery fading into the imaginary distance, while self-written text makes a statement. The imagery is designed to look like a process misprint with misaligned graphical layers, but the colors showing in the fringes are those of the transgender pride flag.
