From Bureau Strada:

Poster for a heavy metal concert and performance event at Bad Bonn, in collaboration with Nathan Meyer. The aim was to design a poster that was coherent with the event, while subverting common heavy metal clichés. To provide a contrast to the handcrafted feel of the linocut, the Metaballs typeface by Maxitype introduces more geometric forms, subtly referencing the bone motif of the illustration.

The F4 poster was printed in a black only version, and another 50 × 70 cm version is printed in offset silver and black with a matte varnish by Cric Print in Fribourg. The concert was organised by Maxime Barras & Maxime Papaux, under the name Maxi-Maxi.
