As graphic design revolves around the interplay of typography, alignments, and visual elements, my poster was meticulously crafted with these principles at the forefront. Embracing the theme of "ERA" (signifying a particular period or epoch), the choice of this word as the focal point was deliberate. Positioned strategically in each corner commands attention in bold white capital letters against a gradient backdrop.
The deliberate use of gradients in black and white not only adds depth and dimension but also serves to symbolize the transitional nature inherent in the concept of an era. These gradients, blending seamlessly from one shade to another, evoke a sense of fluidity and movement, mirroring the passage of time.
The text detailing the vernissage information, rendered in vibrant peachy orange, offers a striking contrast against the monochromatic background. This color choice not only draws the viewer's eye but also injects a sense of vibrancy and excitement, inviting them to engage with the event.Employing a 3D swirl effect adds an edgy, contemporary flair to the design, while still adhering to the structured framework of the grid. This juxtaposition of organic and geometric elements creates visual interest and captivates the viewer's attention.
Settling on ERA as the central theme proved to be a rewarding choice, symbolizing the continuity and transition of the event. I thoroughly enjoyed the journey of exploring different ideas and themes to encapsulate the essence of the vernissage. While choosing the right colors for the informational text and background required meticulous experimentation, it was a process that tested my patience and attention to detail. Through perseverance and problem-solving, I successfully achieved a harmonious balance between the visual elements, resulting in a striking and impactful poster design.
