Swedish illustrator and graphics designer Patrik Svensson has created a fantastically minimalist series of typography posters. The project is a visualisation of various movies by using only letters from title or other typography characters.

Svensson explains what he wanted to achieve from the series:

I have always been a fan of designers that integrate with the viewer to create a sort of game together. I always strive to leave some space for the viewer to fill. It’s a balancing act. The humour is also very important - graphics without a sense of humour is often dead to me.

Personally, The Karate Kid, The Matrix and Basic Instinct are the stand-out designs for me.
