Lost in Translation - Humor in Design
» Series of posters developed for a university assignment in which the students needed to work with the thematic of 'Humor in Design'. My idea was to collect idiomatic expressions from different countries, and translate them literally to English, creating absurd sentences. A collage style was used in all four posters.
The chosen expressions were:
» 1. ich verstehe nur Bahnhof ➽ 'I only understand train station', from German
» 2. ver o sol nascer quadrado ➽ 'To see the sun rise square', from Portuguese
» 3. Att glida in på en räkmacka ➽ 'To slide in on a shrimp sandwich', from Swedish
» 4. 猫をかぶる ➽ 'To wear a cat on one’s head', from Japanese
