House-Maison

House-Maison

I spotted these posters on Church Street in front of a restaurant called House-Maison. I love the way these two words are stacked up on top of each other.

The column of type has a percussive energy, like the sound of a drum roll. It easily commands attention, its noise overcoming everything around it.

The typography of a city often has a kind of music to it and it’s up to us to tune in to it, like honing in on a radio frequency. Are you listening?
