Breakout #2 takes Tamti’s early explorations into real-world projects from 2022 to 2025, building on the success of Homebound, New Wave, and Breakout—100 Posters. Cihan Tamti originally started Breakout as a personal experiment—treating Instagram like a graphic design gym and creating a poster every day. Without briefs or constraints, he explored typography, lettering, illustration, layouts, and bold visual ideas. Some of these early works won awards and attracted clients, eventually leading to the publication of Breakout—100 Posters, a book compiling 100 formative pieces. In Breakout #2—100 Posters, these early experiments evolve into a wider range of projects: commissioned work for clients, community initiatives like the “Local Support Posters” launched during the covid pandemic, and collaborative projects with other designers. The book presents all posters equally, showcasing a broad spectrum of graphic design techniques and approaches. Breakout #2—100 Posters gathers 100 selected works that demonstrate how thoughtful, original design can communicate powerfully across contexts and inspire creative freedom.
