No matter how many innovations technology brings, people will always love retro.
Like retro clothing, retro-inspired photography and even old school music, retro posters are stylistically inspired by trends of the past. These posters however are made with modern designing and poster printing tools that enhance their quality and durability. Some notable techniques used on these retro posters are the application of color palettes with relatively low saturation resulting into faded colors, the use of texture to give the print a vintage feel, and the insertion of distinct typography that originated in past decades.
We have collected 34 retro inspired custom posters for design inspiration. Whether they make you feel nostalgic or simply amused by the “old school look,” you’ll just never grow tired of such designs.
