Poster announcing a postage stamp design workshop given at Yale by visiting designer Jessica Helfand

Poster announcing a collaborative workshop given by Matthew Carter and Irma Boom. The poster is intended to represent both Carter and Boom’s work. The layering and colors refer to Irma Boom’s book  designs, and the formal play with letterforms are a reference to the type design of Matthew Carter. In addition to the formal references, the gradation represents the fact that the dates were constantly changing and ultimately the workshop never took place.
