The Universe (some information to help you live in it)
Poster, 17in x 50in
This poster was intended to evoke the classic woodtype aesthetic while applying it to a contemporary subject and using more "modern" type and imagery. The text comes from Douglas Adams' well-known and much-loved work The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (a personal favorite). In this excerpt, the guide provides the reader with a few important facts about the universe, and how to live in it.
The intention was to have the pace of the piece reflect Adams' characteristic meandering style of writing, and present a look reminiscent of the old-school computer style that permeated the original BBC television series.
