Tasked with creating a memorable promotional piece for photographer Max Wanger, the solution was a large-format newsprint showcasing his distinctive, bright, and spacious photographs alongside minimal bold typography. A key feature of this design was the inclusion of a custom "looking glass." Inspired by 3D movie glasses, this set of colored shapes provided a tactile and conceptual interaction, allowing viewers to filter their view of the images and consider the subjective nature of perception.
