Economics Poster
A poster I designed was featured recently in a blog entry at economics blog Cafe Hayek, authored by professors of economics Dr. Russ Roberts and Dr. Don Boudreaux. My poster offers an example and inspiration for a contest encouraging designers to creatively illustrate the following quote from famed economist F.A. Hayek:
“The curious task of economics is to demonstrate to men how little they really know about what they imagine they can design.”
I am making a full, print quality version of the photo available for those interested. The photo is Create Commons attribution, non-commercial, share-alike licensed, although my poster is heavily modified using a lomography effect.. Therefore the poster or image cannot be sold, and the attribution must stay intact.
In addition, I am making the “Curious task of economics” typography I designed available in a .PSD document. This will make it easy to create your own poster by adding a photo of your choice behind my text. Please ensure any photos used are appropriately licensed.
