About the layout of my poster - 1

the one adventage of Chinese characers is that you can write them by any directions

Chinese characters were designed to write vertically for thousands of years, but since 1949, the new China estabilshed, people began to write horizontally. So it is a very short history to write horizontally from left to right with chinese characters.

Globalisation(?) or go with the western countries, writing stucture had been changed. How to deal with the Chinese layout is a problem.

Especially in poster design, remain the Chinese characters' layout vertically, will gain much aesthetical pleasure from the audiences (just my experience). People will find that is the real Chinese text should be.

So, how about make Chinese and English in different directions in one poster and even different families of typographies in order to present a cultural difference and that will make the billingual poster more clear.
