The posters we made for the National Library of Norway was the beginning of a series
of author anniversaries. We created a grid system and design guidelines, making sure there’s a coherency through the series. We designed the poster sets for the first two writers, Sigbjørn Obstfelder and Tor Jonsson, laying the foundation for the rest of the series. The goal was to make high quality posters, which, in a modern and informative way, honoured the writers, as well as being an art piece you would hang up on your own wall. The two first poster sets were screen printed, and is now being displayed at the 150 different libraries spread across Norway.
