I used cropped photography of buildings and textures from the South End, cut typography from magazines, and colored squares to make my poster feel like the words I chose. I took various pictures of the building down at the South End that fit the words Brick and Old. Then I used cut-out typography which made the poster feel more industrial. Finally, I made three rigid structures to make the piece linear and let the white space congest the rest of the poster.
The South End
My poster for my final project for my Intermediate Typography class where we had to brand Burlington's South End. Our prompt was to create a 100-word list about how we felt about the South End in Burlington, VT, narrow it down to 5, and then create a poster that communicated these words. The words I chose were Brick, Congested, Industrial, Old, and Linear. I used my skills in photography, Illustrator, and Photoshop to complete this project.
