Typography I Like

I love the way this looks. I don't know why, I just do.

The design is the lyrics to Coldplay's song "Fix You".

The white space is handled with a background that looks like stained & marked up concrete, which I think works quite well with lyrics. 

This is an invite to an Open House (obviously).

I really liked the way they took the typography in different directions and integrated it with the illustrations of the house eaves. I also liked the way they used the well-known female & male symbols and even included a note about their 2 cats. Too funny!

There isn't much "white space" in this design, but what there is seems to hold the design together.
