CADBURY’S
Celebrating 200 Years of Chocolate
For their 200th anniversary Cadbury’s asked me to create two pieces of typography for a billboard poster campaign.
They were creating a series of posters that would represent different eras of their iconic packaging design that were returning as limited edition bars to buy.
I was tasked with designing type from 1914 and 1940’s posters. They needed my skills as a sign painter to make the type feel authentically of the period.
So I drew on images from their extensive archive as well as my own pool of references to design and then paint the type before it was digitised to be used in the final posters.
