This project was for my ARTH 3311 class and the purpose was to create a swissted style poster for my favorite band, singer, or artist. Swissted is a project by a graphic designer named Mike Joyce, who is the owner of the firm Stereotype Design in NYC. Joyce’s influences are the International Typographic Style and the used of Modernism with a touch of punk rock.
I chose LCD SOUNDSYSTEM a dance-punk, electro, rock band and my idea was to use stripes of different bright colors and positions in the poster to highlight the swiss style which is characterized for the use of typography and structured compositions and shapes.
