Arquebus now featured on Fab.Fab.comBrooklyn-based Arquebus makes designs that are as eccentric as its name. (For the non-Antiques Roadshow aficionados among us, an arquebus is a type of bygone firearm.) Self-expressive, meaningful and loaded with symbolic imagery, these are bold hand-printed posters to turn a boring wall into an inspired space.

In one moment your entire life can change course. The moment you decide where you’re going because you refuse to go back to where you’ve been.
