The typography letter poster project begins with an assigned letter. This poster is based around the letter ‘U’ and the designer must create a poster to advertise an event that can be traced back to the characteristics of the assigned letter.

The letter ‘U’ can be characterized as mysterious, secretive, and seductive. Using these three words, I chose to advertise a reinvented Rothschild Surrealist Ball because of its theatrical mystery and ominous undertones.

Using type and image fusion, I used the type contrast as an opposite mirror to the cropped image. Where the image is light, the type is dark and bold. Where the image is dark, the type is light and thin.
