What are the best practices for incorporating Latino designers print design influence into your work?

Drawing on Latino print design traditions means leading with intentional, saturated color and strong composition rather than defaulting to safe neutrals.

• Study the color and composition of artists like Cruz-Diez and Magallanes before you start.
• Use bold, saturated colors with cultural intention, not just for decoration.
• Pair hand-drawn typographic elements with clean, structured layouts.
• Print on quality substrates such as canvas or heavy card stock so vivid colors reproduce accurately.
• Let the message drive the design, not the other way around.
