North Island Youth Forum

Sort Design have produced a brief for the North Island Youth Forum (NIYF) that is an example of the tone I am aiming for with my Action Aid Bollocks To Poverty Brief. The NIYF is a youth-led organisation which campaigns for the rights of young people in Northern Ireland. Sort have took a design based approach when tackling this brief, and by that I mean they have omitted any negative imagery nor have they tried to make the audience feel guilty. Instead they have produced some nice graphics and tried to engage conversationally with whoever views the work. Especially for a younger based audience, I feel that this works much better than trying to shock someone just because it is a 'charity' brief (I don't think that the NIYF is a charity, however this type of brief has similarities with one).

More of Sort's work can be seen on their website.

I am an element of...

These are a series of posters designed by Angel Alfaro. Designed around the idea of stripping down different practices into tools one would use in each respective category.

Another set of posters that feature really nice colour and vector work. Keeping it simple pays off. The very tight set text is consistent throughout and helps tie them all together again.

The full set can be viewed on Angel's profile at Behance and more of his work can be seen on his website, Atomic Element.

Simple & Funny TV Show Posters

Here are some posters done as a personal project by Exergian. Very simple, but funny.

I like the simple vector illustrations with no harsh black outline and the pale/muted colours. The type is kept very simple, it is the same throughout which adds some continuity to the posters to tie them all together.

To see the full set head over to Exergian's website and scroll right to the bottom or you view them for sale on Blanka if they drop off.
