Spread from Visual Chronology from 1990 to 2014

Idea #369 is devoted to the feature “A History of Graphic Design in Japan: 1990-2014” – a visual chronology of the development of Japanese graphic design over the past decade and a half.

This spread from the issue features a collage of advertisements and scrap designs of the 1990s. Each design obscures each other to create an overwhelming and distracting layout.
