Step Away from the Word Art
Posters should punch you in the face—visually, we mean. But too many are still trapped in Canva purgatory with bad fonts, crammed text, and clip art energy. You deserve better. Your brand definitely does.
At Print That Now, we don’t do boring. If it looks like a school project from 2008, it’s not leaving our printers.
Make People Stare (in a Good Way)
Great posters don’t whisper. They shout—but with style. Whether it’s for a gig, pop-up, protest, sale, or secret warehouse rave, the poster is your moment to grab attention and not let go.
Forget flat clip art and Times New Roman. Go bold. Use colours that pop and whitespace that breathes. And for the love of design, please align your text.
Think about your audience. Are they pausing to look at your poster on a busy street or glancing at it across a café wall? In either case, make sure your message lands in three seconds or less.
Paper Stock Matters (Yes, Really)
You could have the best design in the world, but if it’s printed on thin, shiny, sad paper? Trash. We’re talking poster-sized heartbreak.
We print on stocks that demand respect. Matte, textured, gloss, recycled—whatever fits your aesthetic. And if you don’t know what your aesthetic is? We’ll help you find it. That’s what we do: we make print feel premium, not like something pulled from a free template.
We’ve worked with tattoo shops that wanted gritty black-on-black. Art students creating screenprint-style protest visuals. Even yoga studios looking for minimalist event calendars that still turned heads. Your paper says as much as your design—don’t skimp.
Design Like You Give a Damn
Say less. Literally. Your poster is not an essay. Keep it tight. One idea, big impact. Hit them with a headline, one killer visual, and just enough info to leave them curious.
QR code? Cool. As long as it doesn’t ruin your layout. Event details? Necessary. But keep it clean. Design should be a visual mic drop—not a to-do list.
Need help? Our designers are ruthlessly honest. They’ll tell you if it’s too busy or if your font choice looks like Comic Sans’s sad cousin.
Because Screens Are Crowded
People are exhausted by screens. Posters feel fresh again. They say you took time. They say you care. They live on walls, windows, lamp posts, and cork boards. They don’t just scroll by. They stick.
So ditch the pixelated templates and make something real. Something people want to take home. Something they’ll remember. The kind of poster that makes someone ask, “Where did you get that printed?”
