Disney film posters get the flat design treatment.

Flat design gets everywhere these days. Websites, logos, and now film posters.

Many children grow up with Disney’s iconic tales, flipping through story books and seeing them come to life on the silver screen. While Disney as a brand has a reputation of being grand, opulent and high on detail, the magic of these stories transcends lush visuals—a fact that has been made exceedingly evident with the release of a collection of minimalistic posters of beloved Disney tales.

Seen on DeviantART, French artist Citron Vert uses negative space and simple color palettes to create representations of everything from Pinocchio and Sleeping Beauty to The Lion King and Mulan. Her work shows that sometimes a simple approach can indeed be whimsical, and — in true Disney spirit — just as magical.
