Four posters

I chose to design my posters as an advertisement for the Horta Museum in Brussels. Victor Horta was an important architect during the Art Nouveau movement, and the museum is in what was formerly his house, which he also designed.

I know the format was 18 x 24, but I liked the one poster with the statue face cropped that way, and maybe it can be thought of as dimensions of a bus or subway poster.

Fonts used are Knockout, Avant Garde, Poster Bodoni, and Mercury Text.








Just a color variation--

    Hmm..your type book has some unexpected things, but these posters rely too much on the image with type just plopped on.
    Maybe focus only on the type and get rid of images.
    This is the fun part. Since it's about architecture and art nouveau, you can think of the poster as a "plot of land" and you're building an organic structure out of it with just type.
