Hot Design


Here's a poster from Polish design firm Homework. It's a re-design of a poster for the movie 'Some Like it Hot'. I like the fact that idea of the movie is portrayed in simple forms letting those who know the movie understand the concept right away and those who don't know it wonder what the graphic is. The use of red, black and white provides a lot of contrast making the poster really stand out. The use of clean sans serif type works well with the clean graphics above it. There is also a nice balance of black and white throughout the poster as well. I just saw this movie recently and didn't realize before how awesome it was. Hopefully this summer I'll have time to check out a few more films I keep hearing about but haven't seen yet.
