Aesthetic Apperatus

Aesthetic Apparatus are among some of my favourite poster designers. Founded in 1998 by Dan Ibarra & Michael Byzewski, in Minneapolis, Wisconsin, Aesthetic Apperatus was initially a mere side project away from Dan & Michaels 'real jobs'. In 2002 the boys decided to make Aesthetic Apperatus a fully fledged, full time design studio.
I love the posters these guys make. Using silk screening they produce posters in a range of styles, some of favourites are their music posters, which they make in limited editions, and which have a bit of cult status among collectors. I really like the way they overlay flat areas of colour and shape, and in some, their mix of photographic and illustrated elements.
