Born in Seoul, South Korea graphic designer Soojin Lee’s portfolio is full of great moments with posters, branding projects and even a stamp collection all featuring. Currently studying in Berlin, Soojin’s style is graphic, clean and vibrant and these self-initiated projects are a great glimpse into how her work might progress over time. Her poster work for various festivals and exhibitions is strongest with digital illustrations and fresh colours providing an almost mesmerising movement and dynamism.

Three graphic posters featuring a blue and yellow colour palette. Each design uses circles and thin lines, with the text “Projekt abstrakt Sketch.” and dates including “11.Jull” and “29.Jull”. — Above
