The Practice of Commons

Standout Features: 

• Minimal color palette
• Geometric, grid-like design
• Evocative

The poster design for "The Practice of Commons", a series of lectures, conferences, and discussions held by the Goethe-Institut in Athens is a textbook example of pleasant, albeit actionable minimalism.

David Jacob derived the idea for the typeface from picking up the concept of commoning and using a 'toolbox of common geometrical shapes' to create a modular type system for various applications and use. This, when combined with the rounded jigsaw-like shapes, creates a harmonious unity that masterfully embodies the whole point of showcased events.
