Less is Not More – Type Poster for Download
Projecting Helvetica Typographic Poster
A clean helvetica typographic based poster design, free for you to download. I have never understood the phrase “less is more.” How can ‘more’ really be ‘less’. Frankly, it’s a stupid saying. So, this poster put’s things right, at least in my crazy crazy world. And if you want to really debate it, meet me down the pub for a beer.

Less clutter is more aesthetically pleasing, or ‘Less is More’
Great poster by the way.
Well said Paul.
The simplicity of the porter itself is what makes it work visually.
less isn’t more, I agree.
it isn’t less, either. it’s just a lower dosage of the same potent medicine.
As long as you don’t abuse it.
Less *could be* more, because it leaves space for imagination.
Less distraction, garbage, irrelevancies, clutter, false starts, unrelated elements, confusion, dilution, narcissistic introspection, vagaries.
When there is less, the real idea can be revealed in its most powerful form. It won’t necessarily be, but it can be.
