Poster 2 of 3 for a series created to explore typography. The tag-line "DEMAND PEACE" is appropriate for this country because the communist propaganda was extensively based on the Marxism-Leninism ideology of pervasive censorship. It repressed truths and spread falsehoods throughout the country. The idea of a Soviet Poster demanding peace suggest that the communists were not the ones at fault for the war, rather, they were the ones demanding that it end. The imagery of the fists was widely used in many posters as well because it further emphasized the call to action. The colors were chosen because red and yellow were the primary colors that represented the Soviet Union, as well as the communist party.
Cable Thief is the new typeface from Studio Disjointed that forms as part of an obsession with typography and the overhead power cables found across the rail network.
In the UK the theft of cable from rail networks has become a widespread problem that costs the network financially but also impacts directly on those using the service for travel.
The typeface is an experiment that looks at aspects of itself that are missing, the fragility of the font is held together by cables and pulleys. Without these the typeface would collapse.
Cable Thief will soon be available on print and T-Shirts through our face book page..

For photography we had to focus on type. Here I was trying to use the shape of the building to show typography but in a subtle way.
Great typography on these vintage screw boxes. Most are from late 1940's and early 1950's.
