about the project

Quotes on posters™ is a project by me, Leo Ehrlich, a designer in search of trying to become a better person. I always struggled with mental health issues of low self-esteem, negative thinking, anxiety, addictions, lack of emotional intelligence, fear, ego, and depression.

The idea behind this project came when I was meditating in Bali. I was not happy with the direction my life was taking and was searching for ways to do something more meaningful to myself and also to others. Then I had the insight that wherever I saw the image of a motivational quote online, it was most of the time a generic design with mountains or lions in the background or just some black random typography on white. Not something inspiring and that I would like to have on my wall.

the goal of the project

The main goal of the project is to curate the best quotes in the world, have fun designing a poster a day and bring inspiration to as many people as possible through as many formats available. It's an ongoing daily practice of developing my creative and thinking skills with the aim to become a better designer and person.

I found out that the best thing I could get from life is to do something that I love and inspires people. I love doing this, and I hope it inspires you. I wish that in the long run, this project becomes an intersection between art, design, and culture, enriching people's lives in all parts of the world. Who knows, maybe one day these posters will stand the test of time as the quotes did.
