Effortmark posters

My collaboration with award-winning illustrator Julia Allum began in 2019 when I wanted a poster to celebrate World Usability Day. Since then, we have created a series of posters on a range of themes. Julia generously agreed to make the posters available with a creative commons license – so they are free to download from this website.

If you’d prefer someone to print your poster for you, then visit Julia’s shop for A3 or A4 versions.She also offers beautiful Giclée fine art prints.

Co-design

Co-design. A farmer ploughs a field, a bee visits a dandelion, and leaves show that they are working together

Quiet time on my own
