OBJECTIVE
Visually interpret Gustav Holst's "Mars, Bringer of War" from his orchestral suite The Planets. Create 2-D form using only shape, form, line, and typography.
The design emphasizes the tension and collision between different sections within the song. Figure vs. ground becomes mixed between the red and blue forms. Yellow is used as a visual guide to connect the image to the text type.

Varied weights and fonts establish a clear hierarchy of information.

The offset, almost stair-stepped form within this section of the image is reflected within the text.
