I love handmade typography so this screen printed poster really stood out. The curves work well to create a design that flows around the page. The composition is really nice as the words wrap around the starting swirl, breaking away from a structured vertical grid. Screen printing this design takes it to another level as, whilst this design is great digital, putting the extra effort into printing onto nice stock by hand makes the difference and it also links the design further to the idea of “paying careful attention to the details”.

I spotted this beautiful screenprint via Behance. What struck me was the effect the use of angles had on guiding the eye around the design. It appears the grid works both vertically, horizontally and at a 45 degree angle. Keeping to this grid creates a consistent feel throughout the design and also forces the eye to snake down the design.

The colour palette is limited but powerful. The intense orange and green literally jump out from the greyscale background. It also creates a layered feel which links nicely to the layered element of screen printing.
