The poster for Transmission, a theatrical comedy show, is deliberately constructed in a playful and confusing way to emphasize possible misunderstandings when transmitting information (however, numbering helps to unravel this tangle).

In order to support rounded graphics, the poster uses two rounded fonts. The role of the main actor is assumed by Vevey by Clemens Piontek – to attract attention and maintain the geometry of shapes. The functional role is assigned to the Oktah Round by Groteskly Yours Studio – with a similar nature, it retains more readability.

The solution is highly inspired by the French design school (thanks to Peter Bankov for the French poster lessons), and is a homage to the works of Studio Helmo.

70×100 cm digital print.
