Topic:

Architectonics and modules in the poster –
A tool for building a modern European design

Brief description:

Over the years, Peter Bankov has insisted on creating graphics as a diary, mixing various ideas about society, the commonplace, feelings, and experimentation. This form makes design and art even more accessible. Two elements are essential to the study of graphic design: the intensity of design practice and the willingness to try out new ideas. Another aspect of this course is the interaction between handcraft and digital software.
