Washing Machines

I adore the childish tone in this piece that I peeled from a blog. It is highly reminiscent of playing with felt in kindergarten, and it has a cool contrast between the colored excitement and the dull washing machine. I think the cutout look is pretty unique and suited for something like this. The cut-out, or analog look is utilized in design to take a piece farther from its digital roots. All in all, this is great and fun.

Poster

Repetition, repetition, repetition. The repeating element makes an appealing piece. It is titled, "Bottom of the Hill" and at first I thought the said element was a hill. It's a bird! The black overlays a lighter blue reflected version of the same pattern. It's a cool example of repetition that creates a texture within a piece. For a two color poster, I think it is executed well and after the visual delight, one is drawn to the center focus.

Garamond Poster

This is a poster for a lecture on Garamond. The pastel colors on black provide an high contrast, especially banked beside the tradition black text on white. It's an interesting combination that works well for an alluring poster. I like how the left side draws focus to the serifs and feet that make Garamond so distinct. I also like how the information is placed only on the blue parts, yet wonder if the yellow and white are readable. In any case, it's a pretty great promotional piece that would attract not only typographers but general public as well.
