The Principles of Design and Development, minimal poster series that we designed for our partners at Tekzenit to be a part of the brand new office’s interior design. Simplistic approach reduces the form to the minimum necessary bringing the posters closer to Geometric Abstraction paintings; being the large-scale colour accent in the clean and bright office interior.
