Applying Philosophy to Design 1 – Practical Assignment – week10

In the last week of our graphic design history studies, we were asked to design a poster for a humanitarian cause we care about, using the Modernist style.
My cause is global warming. Saving the planet is by far the most crucial issue of our time. Without a place to exist, we have nothing.

I decided to use the slogan «global warning», as it fits the style of communication used in the Modernist era. The posters seemed to speak directly and sternly to the audience, making bold statements with strong and almost provocatively aggressive graphic elements to send the message home.
My design aims to echo these ccharacteristics.

these are some sketches I made. I actually ended up moving away from them, as the style was too contemporarry.
