Type 9

Phlegmaticness and Minimalism

Posters suitable for type 9 are characterised by simplicity and emotional balance. There is a lot of free space in the composition, and the number of elements is minimised. All of them are equal and do not conflict with each other. The layout does not go into either rigid structure or chaos – it is characterised by neutrality and balance. The main thing is to convey a sense of harmony and calm.

Such visual language corresponds to the aspiration of Type 9 to serenity. This type tries to avoid conflicts and any situations that disturb his peace. It is most difficult for him to withstand the state of tension or internal imbalance. Type 9 is a peacemaker by nature, he seeks to soften sharp edges and bring everything around to coherence and balance. Therefore, posters with neutral emotional background and balanced layout correspond to his desire for stability and harmony.
