ChallengeChallenge

A hairdressing contest, careers guidance for students, and salons from across the prefecture: one day packed with content, to be fitted onto a single poster.

IdeaIdea

One model’s portrait, large, on a mint-green ground. Classic serif type for the English title; the date and venue big and clear, the contact details small. The contrast in hierarchy lets the portrait lead and keeps the sheet calm.
