Van City


    This is something I picked up at the Vancouver Art Gallery. It was free and cool so what the hey. I really like the way they used instructions to make some interesting points. The fact that the only colour on the page are the "instructions" which draw the eye. I like how they used the lines to make it dynamic and movement. The writing makes one want to read and draws the eye in. The logo We:vancouver is bold and sticks out and creates hierarchy. Since this is a poster for a gallery about Vancouver and it's history and how it could improve I can see how the lines almost form a sort of simple road map. I really just like how the whole thing is simple and has a lot of white space.

   I have something else from the gallery but it seems I misplaced it so I have to find it first.

Cheers,
Melanie

  1. Lots of movement and the red creates some interesting focal points that stop you and make you question. Not your average poster.

  2. Love the page that says WE: VAN COU VER... the layout is interesting and great use of white space really works on the page.
