The Fall of Saigon(e)

A press design reflecting on the final day of the Vietnam War, a moment that marked the abrupt end of an era and the withdrawal of American forces after more than two decades of conflict and devastation. The title is a play on words, referencing the American's sudden departure from Vietnam while also suggesting the wider sense of abandonment left in its wake. The design explores this moment through typography, using typographic illustrations as the primary visual language rather than conventional imagery.
