I don't know that it makes good poster design, but I've discovered that I love book covers that use patterns. I would definitely frame any of these largely, or as a series of smaller prints and hang them as a larger rectangle on the wall. I don't know what it is, but I'm a sucker for a good pattern.
These are covers by
Jonathan Gray, a British designer. He uses mostly typographic solutions for his covers, but they don't operate under a single style. I like how the typography intermingles with the other design elements and I think these would make a great posters.
