PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Oklahoma State University department of art, graphic design, and art history needed a poster to promote the guest lecture for visiting designer Mike Daines. Using cut pieces of paper, letterforms created a face and name of the guest designer. The borders are surrounded by the information about the lecture while the inside is made up of all the clients the designer has worked with over the years. Due to covid-19 the lecture had to be virtual this year so the QR code was made to make it easy to scan and view the lecture over zoom.

Juror Comments
“An ode to hand-drawn letters. Wonderfully old-school, yet it feels very contemporary and personal. The letter scrawls are meticulously planned for legibility. Job well done.” —Clement Mok
