Superb updates from plus mûrs showcase slick design and 90s net-art influences

plus mûrs has previously impressed us with its graphic design work that has the ability to “shift its aesthetic according to context”, and the Nantes-based studio’s recent updates don’t disappoint.

Showcasing the studio’s considered approach and knack with typographic layouts, we love the monochrome stylings of its designs for its book and “internet inspiration platform” Holtz, a collection of images found on the internet that include a rather saucy snap of a very tan-lined nudey lady. Elsewhere we see a range of web-inspired poster designs that merge simple typography with 90s net art-like graphics and shading.

Two printed cards stand side by side against a black background. The left card shows a close-up of a person’s lower back with the word “holtz” at the top. The right card contains text describing an internet inspiration platform curated by “plus murs studio” and a link to “sashakurmaz.com”.
