100 Days of Posters.

One poster a day. One hundred opportunities to become a better designer.

A guided curriculum that moves from visual hierarchy to a personal visual language. Each day teaches one principle and gives you a brief to practise it. Go at your own pace — skipping a day is fine.

How it works

  1. 1

    Read the brief

    Each day introduces one principle with a short lesson, a brief and a few constraints.

  2. 2

    Make the poster

    Use any tool. Keep to the timebox — finished matters more than perfect.

  3. 3

    Share it

    Post with #100DaysOfPosters and tag @alex.presa so others can learn alongside you.

  4. 4

    Come back tomorrow

    Mark the day complete. Your progress is saved in this browser — no account needed.

Ten chapters.

The curriculum builds gradually. Learn the rules first, use them deliberately, then question them — and finish with work that feels like your own.
