This week on Dezeen, Shepard Fairey adapted Obama's Hope poster to portray an anti-fear message for Donald Trump's inauguration, while architects urged the new US president to take action on climate change.
Shepard Fairey, whose iconic posters supporting Barack Obama's 2008 election won him Design of the Year, applied the same style and colour palette to a new image series focusing on the USA's minority populations.
These were distributed as placards on the day of Trump's inauguration, and printed as full-page ads in the Washington Post.
Meanwhile, more than 250 American architecture practices signed an open letter to the new president, who begins his term in high office today, urging him to take action on climate change.
