Consumerism Workshop

The task: create a poster in just two hours—without knowing the tools, without prepared content, and without even a headline. The only starting point: CONSUMERISM.

Under the guidance of Prof. Lars Harmsen, this intense short workshop took place at the Design Department of National Taiwan Normal University.

Before the hands-on session, Marian Misiak and Lars Harmsen gave a lecture introducing different strategies in type design and shared selected works from their portfolios, offering valuable insights into their creative approaches.

Armed with nothing but curiosity and pressure, students were invited to explore new visual languages using the tools such as the Space Type Generator by Kiel Danger Mutschelknaus and Avocado Ibuprofen Paint.

A special thank you goes to Professor Sophia Ling-hung SHIH for the invitation and for making this workshop possible. And of course, a big thank you to all participating students for embracing the challenge and diving into the process with such energy.
