The Hanging Club began with a wall we could not fill. The posters we wanted were either priced like furniture or looked as if they had been printed off a search result, so we started drawing our own. This is what we make, the rules every design has to pass, and how a print gets to you.
Drawn From Scratch
Every design in the catalogue is made from scratch, in a mid-century idiom: a narrow palette, quiet type and one clear idea per poster. A poster lives on a wall for years, so we design for the hundredth look, not the first.
Three Worlds, One Wall
The catalogue covers films and series, sports and home decor. The film and series posters are for the stories people still quote; the sports posters are for the athletes who shaped their game; the home decor prints are lighter, made for kitchens, bathrooms and the corners of a home that could use a smile. They are drawn to hang side by side.
The Rules Every Design Passes
- It holds a wall on its own. If a design does not stand up without help, it does not go in the catalogue. We would rather have fewer posters than filler.
- The facts are right. Directors, years, casts and records are checked against the source. If you spot a mistake, the Report link on every product page reaches us directly.
- The materials are what we say they are. 200 gsm matte paper and solid pine frames, described plainly and without superlatives.
- Nothing is made that nobody buys. Every poster is printed after it is ordered.
How a Poster Reaches You
When you order, your poster is printed at the print partner closest to your address, packed for the journey and sent on its way. Shipping is free worldwide and any customs charges are ours. The whole process, paper and frame included, is in How Your Poster Is Made.
