Description First version of a typographic poster based on type & styles used in the Eighties. Partly chaos, partly grid, partly retro gaming? Something like that...

EDIT: Here's the updated version, largely as requested by my instructor.

Sorry for the (very) late response!

I used Lubalin Graph for the main text in the centre, and a free knock-off of Apple's Chicago font called Pix Chicago, which is on Dafont here: [link] And unfortunately, I can't remember what the other one was! I converted all of it to paths in my old saved file.

This is lovely stuff!

My only niggle is with the holes behind "we apologise for our" - if they could have been filled in red I think this would be perfic'

Funny you should say so, I had the same thought and then my instructor wanted them kept there, and I haven't gotten around to fixing it yet. Thanks very much!

Very nice, man. Great usage of colors, you really hit the mark with this one. But if it's the 80s, where's the nose candy?

Argh, this is pretty awesome. I would have liked a random *pop* of colour here and there, but great work, honestly.
