Design Elements: Examples

Content | Design and Layout | Graphics | Evaluation Checksheet | Examples

As an exercise, apply the criteria in the Evaluation Checksheetpdfto the examples linked from this page. Each of the following examples includes a version needing improvement, our evaluation, and an improved version of the same poster. 

Complete an evaluation for each example, then compare your evaluation with ours.

These examples have been manipulated to illustrate types of problems with posters. In real life, design problems are often more subtle, and design solutions are partly a matter of personal style. Evaluations are to some extent subjective. Have fun.

Note: All of these examples are in pdf (Adobe Reader) format. Examples will open in a new browser window. Close the window to return to this page.
