PosterLab is the poster design workshop Tarık Akın, partner and art director at boldblack studio, has been running since 2025.
Two weeks, a handful of briefs and a lot of sketching: how to read a brief, find an idea, develop it and share the result. Every edition gets its own poster, made by the same hand that teaches it.
“By the end of two weeks we want to leave with beautiful posters.”
