ABOUT

Weltformat Graphic Design Festival 2018 in Lucerne (Switzerland), this year cel­e­brat­ing the 10th jubilee of Welt­for­mat Graph­ic Design Fes­ti­val, again is look­ing for the most excit­ing new­com­er poster design­ers. Welt­for­mat poster competition 2018 is theme "Now What?!".

Organiser is look­ing for your visu­al inter­pre­ta­tion of turn­ing points; this moment of maximal tension, just before everything changes – moments of uncertainty, triggered by incisive events and formative experiences. Turning points–whether on a political, socio cultural or personal level–feel like a vacuum, like the start of a journey with an uncertain outcome. They ask for decisions, a turnaround, a change of direction or maybe just a swerve? As harbingers of a new era, they are signs of profound change.
