Typographic Philosophy Posters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Max Temkin Quotes Great Minds for His Kickstarter Project

— April 16, 2012 — Pop Culture
If you’re the type of person who appreciates their wall adornments to be intellectual in addition to being visually pleasing, then you should consider purchasing one of these Max Temkin ‘Philosophy Posters.’ Inspired by his 8th grade teacher who had a poster with a quote by Nietzsche, Temkin wanted to create a series of ten screenprinted posters with quotes that motivated people to expand their horizons. He thus created a Kickstarter page asking for $2,000 to help fund the project and for him to get inventory. As of now, his project has received $18,988.

Max Temkin’s posters feature bold text on a gradient halftone background. Preceding the thoughtful quotes are little graphics to help viewers identify who the intelligent words belong to. It’s surprising how unkempt philosophers’ hair are.

Max Temkin is selling his posters for $20 a piece.
