Here’s a map of the world with each country depicted in its national currency. A 36″ x 24″ print will set you back $24. It’s times like this that I’m always reminded of how boring U.S. currency design is. [via explore]

I love Oliver Shilling’s minimal film posters because they seem so much more expressive, like a minimal watercolor, than your typical geometric minimalist effort. So far, he’s done posters for: Fight Club, Se7en, Layer Cake, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Shutter Island, A Clockwork Orange, Drive, and Léon (aka The Professional). All prints are [...]

How giant? Well, the first poster for the movie is [...]
