Tactile Logistics Meets Poster Design
As a branding curator, I champion tactile projects that marry concept with materiality. Slanted’s 25th yearbook reimagines a catalogue as a shipping parcel, and it captivates. Designers Ivanova and Hillereau use raw cardboard, neon labels, printed tape, and tight grids. The editorial logic favors utility, while typography sharpens hierarchy and scale. Photographs show heavy stocks, visible stitching, and a disciplined visual rhythm. It is a tactile manifesto for contemporary poster culture, and a resource for studios. The design preserves the posters’ primacy, letting each work breathe within strict frames. Collectors will value its tactility.
Inside, a strict grid houses diverse posters, balancing variety with editorial discipline. Heavy paper, visible thread, and calibrated typographic scale make the book feel like an exhibit object. Color is restrained, a single orange label provides a purposeful accent. This volume records regional graphic trends, and offers enduring reference material for design practice. As a curator, I recommend exploring the production details, they reveal thoughtful craft decisions. Visit the full post to see imagery, close ups, and sourcing information for the publication. It is a keen study for anyone invested in tangible brand expression. Worth reading.
