A poster
a day.
Ein Plakat
pro Tag.

One a day, no client. Eins pro Tag, kein Kunde.

Daily posters as design discipline. One per day for a month, no client, no brief beyond the deadline. The constraint was repetition; the work is the trial and error of finding what survives.

Tägliche Plakate als gestalterische Übung. Eines pro Tag für einen Monat, kein Kunde, kein Briefing außer der Deadline. Die Bedingung war Wiederholung; das Ergebnis ist die Auswahl dessen, was bleibt.
