Paimion parantola -säätiö Holistic Healing poster
Description
In 2023, the Paimio Sanatorium and Grafia, the Association of Visual Communication Designers in Finland, celebrated their 90th anniversaries by organising a poster competition where participants were invited to explore Aino and Alvar Aalto's vision of the human relationship with the environment. The Paimio Sanatorium 90 – Human Perspective poster competition received hundreds of submissions from around the world, and the awarded entries are introduced in this collection. Printed on high-quality paper, the posters spread joy around them while conveying the message of well-being and care cherished by the Aaltos. Anna Meck's Holistic Healing poster depicts light as a feeling and a healing element. German designer Meck chose the theme of her poster to reflect the healing power of light, air and nature – elements that also guided the design work of the Paimio Sanatorium. Inspired by the colour scheme of the sanatorium, the warm tones of yellow, turquoise and orange along with the characteristic round shape seen in many Aalto designs bring the nurturing warmth of the sun all the way to the viewer's skin. Anna Meck's Holistic Healing was awarded joint first place in the Paimio Sanatorium 90 poster competition. • Read the story: Meet the winners of the Paimio Sanatorium 90 poster competition! >
