THE BRIEF
While autumn days are getting colder and colder, we double down with a spine-chilling theme.
In modern slang, “cringe” describes that sharp feeling of secondhand embarrassment when someone is being painfully awkward without realising it.
Share with us a cringe situation or story. Something you witnessed or heard that made you unbearably awkward.
It’s time to flip the negative into a positive. Free yourself from the burden of secondhand embarrassment, and make a poster about it.
How does the ‘cringe’ factor affect the letterforms? Let typography embody the feeling and take the emotional hit.
As always, what you say is up to you. We are interested to see how the typography is influenced by the message.
Vent the drama, share the silly. We can't wait to see what you come up with!
The deadline is Thursday the 29th of October at midnight (GMT).
