This poster series explores the mission of Humanizing the Homeless through expressive typography, color, and composition. Inspired by Leah den Bok’s bold photographic style, I created a unified triptych in which each poster stands alone while connecting through a shared visual system. Using modular grids, experimental type, and layered graphic elements, the series emphasizes empathy and curiosity, encouraging viewers to engage with the individuals represented and the story that moves between the panels.
Overview
The process moved from digital sketches with experimental type, to grid studies that refined structure, and then to iterative combinations of both. By blending successful elements from each stage, I gradually developed a cohesive system that led to the final composition.
