Pennsylvania-based designer Colin Morella came up with a series that recreates all of the Star Wars movie posters. The renditions follow the same minimalist principles: they all feature a different singular color scheme and depict a spaceship that was in the coinciding film.
While most Star Wars movie posters cater to an action-loving audience, these posters are more artistically crafted and serene. They showcase the beauty of galactic environments while focusing on the particular hovercrafts that belong to each film. They appear minimal -- especially in comparison to the real action-packed posters that showcase Jedi knights -- but these posters are intricately designed. For example, there is a lot of detailing in the illustrations of the space ships.
Both Star Wars fans and the art community would have no problem placing one of these posters on their bedroom or basement walls.
