The creative concept emphasizes the plurality of expression in graphic design and included posters, catalogs, programs, folders, advertising campaigns for radio, animated TV commercials and advertising for magazines and newspapers. Each guest designer created a poster for the event. In the catalog-invitation, the dimensions of the modular system allowed for zero paper waste and was the basis of formatting for the entire project. The catalog is composed of loose sheets with a portfolio and biographical notes for each participant.

This work was part of the 4th Biennial of Design in 1998.
