Alcuin Awards Poster

description

This poster was created for the 29th annual Alcuin Awards, a program that recognizes excellence in Canadian book design. Created in my Advanced Typography course, it was my intention to reflect a more traditional side of book design. The poster was inspired by bookplates, which are also known by their Latin name ex libris, translating to "from the books." As an extra challenge, although the piece was welcome to have subtle image elements, it was required to focus primarily on the use of typography.
