I Drove 3,000 Miles

Poster for AIGA San Francisco
Photographs by Bob Aufuldish

Bob Aufuldish explains:
The prompt for this poster, part of a fund raising event for AGIA San Francisco, was to design a poster about my relationship to San Francisco. I liked the prompt so much I made three posters. After some rough calculation I realized that San Francisco is about 3,000 miles from where I grew up in Wickliffe, Ohio. Even after living here for half my life, I still can’t get over the view of the Pacific Ocean horizon. The typography is made with stencil letters and silver spray paint.
