Classic Song Lyrics as Limited-Edition Posters

Share:

Everyone has a favorite song. You know, the one that has never left the “Recently Played” section of your iTunes, or your internal playlist for that matter. Have you ever wished that you could just paste its lyrics up on your wall in some lovely typography? Do you happen to be a fan of famed musical acts like New Order, Morrissey, and Radiohead? Then we’ve got some exciting news for you! To celebrate its 200th anniversary, Warner/Chappell Music (a division of the Warner Music Group) asked 10 well-known graphic designers to transform iconic lyrics from its catalogue into new works of art. Now, these pieces are being sold as limited-edition posters, with 100 percent of the profits going to Save the Children. Click through to browse the impressive collection, which will be on display at London’s StolenSpace gallery through October 10.
