Art Deco Moderne was a big topic tonight. Illustrated posters in a style of Ludwig Hohlwien. The use of iconic 2D illustrations and bold design choices in posters. Propaganda posters from all sides in WWII are very influential for future designs. FUTURA GETS CREATED!! Herbert Matter makes incredible use of Plakatstil styles with Image & text combonations for communication.
These are some of my favorite historical posters. The styles they created with their illustrations can be seen coming out in my work with vector art. The use of micro + macro image and word combonations are essential skills used by all designers today and they are engrained into our brains here in school. The Swiss styles created during this time period are nearly perfect and helped bring graphic design away from so much illustration.
