Swissted: Punk Rock Flyers designed as Swiss Modernist Posters

We’re loving these punk rock posters done up in a swiss modernist style. They’re not just designed for style sake. Each one’s use of color, shape and layout work conceptually with the band’s name. We may need to plaster the office with them.

Here’s the description from designer Mike Joyce’s site:

“swissted is an ongoing project by graphic designer mike joyce, owner of stereotype design in new york city. drawing from his love of punk rock and swiss modernism, two movements that have absolutely nothing to do with one another, mike has redesigned vintage punk, hardcore, and indie rock show flyers into international typographic style posters. each poster is sized to the standard swiss kiosk dimensions of 35.5 inches wide by 50 inches high and set in berthold akzidenz grotesk medium, all lowercase. every single one of these shows actually happened.”

Although the two movements aren’t related, they totally go together in this context. Nice work!
