Erich Brechbühl Brings Posters to Life With Multi-Dimensional Designs

Just like picking out a poster to slap onto the narrow walls of a dorm room or to decorate a bare space in an office or apartment building with, trying to choose our favorite Erich Brechbühl poster is no easy task. The award-winning artist from Sempach, Switzerland is known for his uber-creative design work in the branding, editorial and poster-making worlds. Taking his craft beyond just the artwork itself, Brechbühl has even founded his own design studio dubbed Mixer and co-founded Lucerne's poster festival known as Weltformat. So, what makes his graphic displays so engaging? Let's take a look below.

Although it isn't always easy to reimagine letters, numbers, colors and objects into a stimulating arrangement, Brechbühl knows the trick. If we attempted to explain his collection of elaborate posters to an unfamiliar audience, a few words in the description would include attention-grabbing, dynamic, clever, fresh and multi-dimensional. The established graphic designer not only uses vibrant hues to make his work pop, he also adds depth by implementing an illusory element to his posters.
