While working on a final project in the first semester of my Master's at BU, I became inspired to create a series of posters about food—specifically about wine, oil, and vinegar bottles and all of the interesting shapes that occur there. I took inspiration from vintage food posters and tried to challenge myself to create three separate posters that still felt unified. 
Above is the first poster I worked on. Eventually, I kept going to create the remaining two but this poster served as a baseline for style and color usage. 
The second poster of the series was largely inspired by my father, as he is a love of red wine. It also took some inspiration from my time working at a winery the summer prior. I wanted to explore the relationship between wine, oil, and vinegar. This poster also serves as a break of sorts between the oil and vinegar posters. 
As with most things in design, the third and final poster was my favorite. Both color and shape referenced all prior designs but combined them in a way that still managed to be exciting and new. Overall, these posters were a result of true inspiration based on personal research. I believe that even without the unifying central blue element on each poster, they would still read as a set.
