Typografia 2 - Print tests / posters

Various tests on different substrates with different printing, both colour and black and white. The colour from the laser printer seems to give a glossy finish, which can be good in some examples, however I much prefer the more matt finish of the black and white, using the stock for colour I think may be the way forward with this brief. reflecting the techniques used by the designers exhibited.



 The examples above on screen are a vibrant green, but it became clear from these tests that this would be a very difficult color to achieve in the CMYK print range without a spot colour. This may have to be ruled out, also from feedback received, these are the least favourite examples because the colour doesn't really relate to the exhibition conceptually. whereas the red of other examples relates directly to Swiss design and the black has impact.

Examples of the colour that is in the design. 



Not really sure about these next to each other, however possibly something like this double sided may be more interesting and give a poster that could be applied in a variety of ways to the environment.
