Here’s an interesting project by Swedish designer Viktor Hertz that showcases a series of posters with pictograms of famous song titles. Using Adobe Illustrator, Viktor creates icons and symbols based on the literal meaning of the names of songs.
For example, the poster for ‘Highway to Hell’ features the devil’s trident underneath a highway with arrows pointing forward. The poster for ‘Life Is A Rollercoaster’ shows people on a rollercoaster ride on a strand of DNA. The poster for ‘Mind Games’ shows a brain between an arcade ping pong game. Check them all out below.
