Hello! I am Andreas Xenoulis, a typomaniac design freak from Greece. I would like you to have a look at my latest project, a stunning, elegant typographic silkscreen poster with gold colours and gold foils applied with glue. Maybe you’ll find Bodoni Girl interesting.

This poster is a typographic project made out of Bodoni letters being inspired by the female sensitivity. Bodoni is a series of serif typefaces first designed by Giambattista Bodoni (1740–1813) in 1798. Like every typeface, Bodoni has its own charisma. Its presence in design always reflected the good taste, the classic, the elegant, the different. Bodoni has narrower underlying structure with flat and unbracketed serifs, extreme contrast between thick and thin strokes, and an overall geometric construction. The reason I decided to use silkscreen as a method was to add a little spark, using gold colours and gold foils to reflect the ultimate woman nobility.
