100 Years of GF Smith Paper

Create a poster to celebrate 100 years of GF Smith Paper, exploring paper in all it's forms.
Must-haves:
  • A2
  • Portrait 
  • Must have "100 Years of GF Smith Paper, Design Museum, 01-31 July 2011" written on.
So what's GF Smith paper?
GF Smith paper is a trade specialising in paper merchant, for over 100... So the brief is made up? Disappointing as I'd quite like to see a paper exhibition! Especially as I love what I've researched during this project. Oh well... On with the research.

What I got from looking at GFSmith.com was that their printed product are very simplistic but effective with a bold typeface that is usually the main subject matter. Not often is photos used. However, even if my design is just the type, it'd need to be made out of paper and therefore photographed... However I will incorporate the bold text alongside the photo.
