"Oi" | Typographical Poster

•

This project that began in mid November was based around the idea of designing a typographical poster for the word “Oi”, a form of Cockney slang used to help attract somebody’s attention, by the way of a visual style that combines minimalism and simplicity together.

As you will see, the final outcome consists of the word being displayed in a medium-sized serif-styled font, with the letter “i” being replaced with an exclamation mark (as a “visual nudge” to the fact that the word itself is often shouted), alongside the inclusion of speech marks for the sake of aesthetic detail.

To help push the overall depth of the design that little bit further, I decided to include a grain texture in order to push away from a look that would appear too flat and too polished for my own personal liking.

So, be sure to tell me what you think in the comment section below!
