Samples of client commissioned poster design work.
Poster design for TypeTogether in July 2011 showing the typeface Coranto 2 by Dutch type designer Gerard Unger. As Coranto 2 is primarily a newspaper face, my goal was to have a design suggestive of the mixed size and font-styles of newspapers in a playful, bold and dynamic way. I chose orange as the main colour, being the national historic colour of Holland. The poster is available via TypeTogether Merchandise and more pictures are displayed on their flickr set.

Poster design for TypeTogether for their Adelle typeface as part of the Tokyo Type Director Club's Annual Awards exhibition 2010. The requirements were one main poster showing the entire typeface in a visually appealing way and two specimen posters in a more restrained style showing full character sets, OpenType features and language samples. Restricted to black and white, I used size contrast to create an eye-catching, striking impression and accentuate the central content. Exhibition picture below right from the TypeTogether flickr set.
