Plakatstil, also known as sachplakat, was an early style of poster art that originated in Germany in the 1900s. It was started by Lucian Bernhard of Berlin in 1906. The common characteristics of this style are bold eye-catching lettering with flat colors.
 
This poster design was created from the photograph displayed below. I simply took the main colors of the bird and created a structured image. The font I used was Cooper Black.
Dada was an artistic and literary movement that began in 1916 in Zurich, Switzerland. It arose as a reaction to World War I, and the nationalism, and rationalism, which many thought had brought war about.
 
This poster was an addition to the project above. The goal was to create two diffeent stylized posters. This poster is in the form of dada. Most dada posters are very dark and direct and my focus was to emphasize on the beauty of the bird.
