It is recommended to align the information vertically on the left side of the module.
In the far right half of the poster a small amount of information (no more than 2 small blocks) – can be aligned on the right side. But if there are more than two text blocks, and they are voluminous in information, it is desirable to stick to the left side of the module.
It is recommended to align horizontally along the top line, as this is a rhyme before alignment in the logo. But this principle is not a dogma if the blocks of information need air with each other. The horizontal alignment of the logo should always be on the top line.
