Tres Tipos Gráficos creates clean, pared-back theatre posters

Date
6 July 2015

Spanish studio Tres Tipos Gráficos has created these simple posters for plays that ran last season at Teatro de La Abadía, a theatre and performing arts facility in Madrid. The studio has represented each production with a photograph that encapsulates the general feeling and atmosphere of the play as opposed to a specific scene or character to encourage the audience to create their own interpretations.

The composition is beautiful with the main image placed off-centre and the most prominent colour of the photograph used in the background. This pared-back bleeding of the image combined with bold type propped behind the image creates a clean, modern, impactful poster. Individually they’re striking but as a series they’re wonderfully cohesive.
