Hi cheers for the comment.
The font is called Cicle and can be downloaded on font squirrel here [link]
I just used a paper texture, cant remember where from sorry but theres loads online.
I created the images in illustrator then transferred to photoshop, then put paper texture a layer above the image then
use the multiply as the layer style.
Hope this helps

i really like this.
usually I'm not much of a minimalist but I can appreciate very well orchestrated design.
What really adds a ton of interest to this poster is the wrinkled look to the paper. It adds a lot to the simple geometric shapes.
Very simple but direct and sweet. Blue= earth
Silver= satellite
And the very informational, almost theatrical poster letters in a uniform and center within the image.
Well done, well done.

Cheers very much, I completed the series and they looked good, but just felt fake and incomplete, so I used a paper texture and the whole poster came to life.
I wanted a really legible font that wouldn't distract from the image but slot into place as if it was another shape in the poster.
I'm glad I could create a bit of minimalism you like, its a great way to develop design skills because you have to think about the core elements and nothing more. Its helped so much now I've moved into branding work as well.
Cheers for your comment I appreciate it
