New York based graphic designer
and illustrator, Alex Proba recently committed to a new daily routine to with
quite beautiful results. Her clever little idea: every day before the day ends,
she would create a poster in less than 30 minutes. To the designer, this
process has acted like a diary, a visual trigger of the day in which it was
created.
Proba studied Spatial and
Graphic Design in Hamburg, and she has also studied Furniture and Product
Design in the Netherlands. And now, she currently spends her days as Art
Director of Kickstarter, the online phenomenon that is funding thousands of
creative projects every year.
This personal creative task of
Proba’s has grown into the A-Poster-A-Day project, and it is attracting a lot of like-minded people, inspiring others to embark upon their own creative endeavors. and Proba has ambitions of
turning the first 365 days worth of posters into a book. It is sure to be a
colourful, quirky, and invigoratingly refined edition… and not a bad way to
celebrate a year in the life!
