Field Notes Quarterly hero

A quarterly publication needed presence in three cities with a budget for paper and nothing else.

The challenge

What stood in the way

No photography, no media spend, no headline longer than four words.

Field Notes Quarterly exploration

The approach

How the work was made

We built a poster grammar of gold geometric forms that read as one continuous sentence when pasted in sequence.

Design direction

The language we committed to

Three shapes, one gold, black stock, and a strict rule that no poster works alone.
