Haiku

Design a poster for Haiku

For this task you are required to create a poster for Haiku. Before beginning the design, you must present your ideas (in a txt or pdf file). You should describe in detail what the design will look like and list any screenshots, images, fonts, etc, you'll be using. After the idea has been accepted by mentors, you can start working on the design.

  • The poster should contain the Haiku logo and links to various useful resources and information about Haiku, while keeping it concise.
  • The design should fit Haiku's overall style. First research Haiku and its features. Join our forums and IRC channel (#haiku on Freenode) and ask what should be included in the design. We take into consideration originality and creativity as well as quality of the design.
  • Keep in mind basic design rules when creating the design.
  • Poster should have a white background.
  • Use at most 2 font types, with a Creative Commons license.
  • Everything should be neatly integrated into the design.
  • Poster dimensions: A2 format.

This is an older poster, as an example.

You can complete this task using software of your choice (e.g. Inkscape, Photoshop, Illustrator, Wonderbrush). Design should use vector format where possible, to allow clean resizing.

You must submit all sources (PSD, AI, SVG) and preview files (PNG) of your design. All the images, fonts, etc. you used in creating the design have to be under a suitable creative commons license.
