Cardon Copy

'Cardon Copy takes the vernacular of self -distributed fliers and tear offs we have all seen in our neighbourhoods. It involves hijacking these unconsidered fliers and redesigning them overpowering their message with a new visual language. I then replace the original with the redesign in its authentic enviroment.' http://cardoncopy.com/
