Square poster reading \"(WE TELL NEW STORIES)\" in bold white caps, interleaved across a grid with portrait crops, starburst glyphs, and repeated rotated \"2019\" labels.
Summary
A square black poster that breaks the phrase "(WE TELL NEW STORIES)" into bold white caps and scatters the words across a modular grid, alternating type cells with small portrait crops, line starbursts, and rotated "2019" tags. The defining move is treating typography as grid tiles rather than a single line.
Visual description
The composition is a tight grid on black. Large white uppercase fragments ("(WE", "TELL", "NEW", "STO", "RIE", "(S)") occupy individual cells, with a curved opening parenthesis and a quotation mark used as standalone marks. Interspersed are small rectangular photo crops of faces in warm, peachy skin tones, plus thin radiating starburst glyphs and a hooked down-left arrow. The word "2019" repeats several times set sideways in small type along cell edges. Everything is monochrome black-and-white except the warm photographic crops, which supply the only color.
Key takeaway
Slicing a single sentence into grid tiles, then padding the empty cells with glyphs, small photos, and rotated date stamps, turns one line of copy into a whole composed surface. The sideways repeated "2019" acts as a rhythmic texture and a date stamp at once.
Reuse notes
Great for editorial covers, fashion campaigns, festival or season identities, and agency self-promo where energy and density matter more than calm. The grid scales to any short slogan. Keep photos to small accent crops so the type stays dominant; too many images would break the system.
