I was commissioned to create a super fun, retro set of signage for Red Bull Creation's Maker Faire in Brooklyn. Maker teams created incredible, elaborate games for attendees to play and were judged on various criteria. I drew typography inspiration from retro 1980's arcade games. The client wanted the signs to look as if they were on chalkboards, with instructional game play in chalk. Below are photos from the event featuring the signs in action!

Each sign was displayed in a lightbulb frame, and game play signs were mounted with black frames.
