Familytree Design
I recently stumbled upon a poster series by a group of four friends who run an illustration studio, Familytree Design. Besides these posters being extremely cute, I really like the way they use lettering as a story-telling device alternate to the actual illustrations. Each of the posters in the series are illustrated and lettered by a different studio mates, which makes for really great variations in style while maintaining the same color palette to keep the look consistent.
After you check out the shop, head on over to their portfolio to check out more of this emerging studio’s charming work.

These posters have a great retro style. The limited colour palette and drawing style reminds me of the old Dandy and Beano annuals I used to read as a kid. I really love the Leviathan poster. The typography is strong and angular mimicking the ‘v’ shape on the creatures head which really ties the whole design together for me.
