Forks & Corks 2014 | Limited-Edition Screenprints

Forks & Corks is an annual food and wine tasting event benefitting Harvesters Food Bank. The event attracts restaurant enthusiasts, Harvesters supporters and foodies alike. Each year, Willoughby designs the visual identity for Forks & Corks. This includes invitations, tickets, programs, promotional ads & limited-edition silkscreen posters to auction off at the event.

Our goal this year was to capture the elegance & liveliness of the event with a poster that could double as an art print. The intricacy of the design, laden with meticulous embellishments, is stabilized with monoweight lines & a restricted color palette. Food elements are woven into the design; discover the citrus wedge cornerstones or silverware worked into radiating beams. We worked with Vahalla Studios to screenprint a set of limited-edition posters. The metallic navy ink pops off the paper & elevates the design into a striking print.
