Stockholm is the capital and the largest city of Sweden. The inspiration for the poster is from Sergels Torg.  Sergels Torg is a major public square in Stockholm, Sweden. There is a landmark light building in the square, which has three different lighting modes. I chose one of the lighting patterns and colors to complete this poster. This Stockholm City poster consists of three main colors: gray, black, and white. These three colors are also the main components of Seger square, a famous scenic spot in Stockholm. Gray occupies the main body. It's not only the main color of the glass columns in Seger square but also reflects Sweden's gentle, modest and neutral personality. Black and white, as auxiliary colors, set off the tone of gray, just like the pillars highlighted in the square.

Thimphu is known for its Buddhist sites. In Thimphu the city is surrounded with the religion, architecture , culture and ceremony.

This poster is inspired by the rituals of Bhutan's funerals, called "sky burials." In Tibetan Buddhism, "sky burial" is believed to represent a person's wish to go to heaven. In Thimphu, prayer flags (one part of the ceremony) are particularly popular. They are essentially rectangular pieces of cloth printed with mantras and religious chants in one of five colors. Bhutanese people believe that when the wind blows by the prayer flags, it carries the positive energy associated with the mantras with it. As a result, they are frequently seen tying up fresh flags, especially after funerals.

Marseille is a southern French port city. It is also the country's second-largest metropolis and one of the Mediterranean's most important port cities. Marseille is France's oldest city, having been established around 600 BC. The ambiance of Marseille's historic town and architecture inspired me. As a result, the pieces on the poster are a reduced version of an antique rooftop from the village of Les Pennes Mirabeau. Furthermore, a brownish color palette is perfect for giving the town an older character while still retaining a Marseille touch.

Leipzig is a city in east-central Germany. It is being named as a city of music, as many of the world’s greatest composers have lived and worked here.  It is also well known for its Gewandhaus Orchestra performance, which is based in the Gewandhaus concert hall. As a result, I incorporated the elements from the music sheets and the composition of the orchestra into the design of this poster. The colors dark brown and beige are used to represent a sense of classic.

"Cairo" is the capital city of Egypt. It is a modern city that is strongly connected with ancient Egypt due to its location to the Giza Pyramid and the Nile river. The typeface that I get is "gills san," which is a sans serif font that has a modern touch but also looks classic due to the proportions. As a result, I've chosen the theme of 'modern but classic' for this poster. I used a triangular shape to symbolize the pyramid and colored three of them blue to emphasize the fact that the Giza pyramid has three main pyramids. considering it is one of Cairo's most famous landmarks and since Cairo has very high temperature I decided to uses orange as a background

Brasilia is famous for its modernist architecture, representing the "hope of the bright future". However, the city is also a symbol of inequality and a failed utopia that is only accessible for the rich. This design represents the contrast between planned utopia and reality, as well as human and artificial.

Fukuoka is a travelling city for cultural experiencing, and it is an old city merged with one of the oldest cities in Japan called Hakata.

Although the cities had been merged, Hakata still has a significant culture in Fukuoka. One of the most famous souvenirs in Fukuoka, the Hakata dolls acts as a traditional craft from the old Hakata city.

Nowadays, there are only 18 Hakata dolls shops left in Fukuoka. I wanted to encourage and promote tourists to buy Hakata dolls. Therefore, I illustrated 18 Hakata dolls as a symbol of those shops cascading down as generation goes.

Karachi is the biggest city in Pakistan. It is a coastal city, therefore I incorporated a more abstract and simplified form of the shape of the night lights reflecting in the water.

This Boston city poster conveys the pattern of the column which is used as a part of the architecture in Boston and used in many world-class universities in Boston as well including MIT and Harvard. The gradient in sizes of negative space creates shading and the 3D appearance of the column. Bright orange-red is used to represent new generations and modernism while dark blue represents the rich historical story of this city. Both colors also symbolized the flag of the USA where the city is located.

There is a famous fish market in the city that sells several animals such as fish, rabbits, horses, etc. Therefore, I used the idea of frozen animals in the markets to create the poster with the colors light gray and blue depicting coldness in yakutsk.

Valencia is a port city that lies on Spain’s coast. It is known for its City of Arts and Sciences with futuristic architectures. The essence of the city which are the ocean and the architectures inspired this poster. Therefore, I incorporated simplified shapes of the city of Arts and Sciences and the horizon line where the ocean meets the bright sky. My choice of colors derived from Valencia’s  buildings, streets, and statues. The colors are narrowed down to bright orange, representing the vivid life of the locals, and dark teal ,to draw a contrast to the poster.

Kandy is a city in central Sri Lanka. Its geographical location places the city around mountains with the Kandy lake right in the heart of the city. Sri Lanka's national animal is an elephant and it's to no surprise that Kandy uses elephants as a parade animal in its yearly event, Esala Perahara. Thus, I decided to use an elephant as the main component of my poster, paying respect to the sacred animal. If looked closely, the negative space in the elephant resembles buildings in which the body of the elephant is the sun rising behind the city line. By putting half of the elephant in the poster, it generates a feeling of how there's more to discover in this wonderful city with lots of history behind it. I decided on red for the elephant because it's the primary color used for temple frescos, due to the fact that red can be found in many natural clays and stones around the mountains. To bring the piece together, I made the background green to illustrate the city's surplus in trees and mountains. The aspect of the greenery of the city refreshes the viewer and the different ceremonies based on their rich history in Buddhism would surely inspire people who are interested in Southeast Asian countries to discover more about this amazing city.

Toronto is Canada's most populous city, located along Lake Ontario’s northwestern shore. This multicultural hub functions as Canada's international trading center and the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team forms one of the city's main identities. The local passion for this sport informed my poster design incorporating visual elements like the hockey rink and puck. My choice of using blue, red, and white was also drawn from the colors of the Toronto Maple Leafs to highlight their significance and convey the overall energetic aura of the city.

Naypyidaw, the capital city of Myanmar, is ironically known for having an absurdly empty street, barren of people and established landmarks. Although, the city does house a lot of Myanmar’s important government buildings like the Union Parliament. The country is also known for inventing lotus weaving in textile which explains the hard to miss lotus statue standing tall in the Ministry Zone.

Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, encompasses 14 islands and more than 50 bridges on an extensive Baltic Sea archipelago. These three posters are inspired by the Courtyard by Marriott Stockholm Kungsholmen. Skansen and Sergest Torg. Stockholm has a great variety of architectural styles, as well as a rich use of color. In this poster, I want to use the least color to show the characteristics and style of Stockholm architecture

Turin I think is an interesting place where there's a nice contrast between the usual peacefulness and its fame for cars industry and a successful football team, so there's this sense of excitement and serenity that coexist in Turin. I chose colors I think would fit and surprise the viewer regarding this wonderful city.
My given typeface is ITC Avant Garde, it's a fairly simple typeface to work around with the composition.

Brasilia is famous for its modernist architecture, representing the "hope of the bright future". However, the city is also a symbol of inequality and a failed utopia that is only accessible for the rich. In these designs, the approach is to represent the contrast between planned utopia and reality. Color choices are black/navy and high saturated green to highlight the contrast between human and artificial.

Kandy is known to be the home to the Buddha's tooth, with history being very rich in Buddhism's origins. Their national animal is elephants, and they can be seen walking down the streets during their annual ceremonies. I included the elephant in the first design, which if looked closely, a silhouette of the cities can be seen, with the sun behind it. Kandy also has a lot of temples and so, they would paint frescos inside their walls. One of the most iconic symbols inside these temples are the lotus flowers, which I adapted into a very colorful pattern, mimicking a candy to create a play on words between Kandy and candy. Next, their architecture is considered to be very ancient and so, I included the Buddha's tooth temple upside down to create an interesting design, as if the temple is overlooking the city. It is in a purple/blue color scheme to illustrate the city during night time.

The idea is to promote Valencia as a port city in Spain. Valencia does not only have a beautiful sea but also some great fascinating historic and futuristic buildings. Shapes and colors are derived from architecture and the sea. Some shapes are still to be more simplified. The poster is inspired by the city atmosphere. Next I try to challenge myself with more simplicity and texture.

The biggest attraction of Warsaw is the market lined up in the old town. In the first design, I depicted the top angle of the market and the people who visit.

Warsaw is also known as the "City of Music.” That's because this town is the hometown of the genius musician Chopin. The Lazienki Park in Warsaw has piano performances every week. So the second design adopts a black wave of musical notes on the green cube that represents the trees in the park.

In the third one, I used black and green cubes to simplify the piano performance in the Park.

Naypyidaw, the capital city of myanmar, is ironically known for having an absurdly empty street. One of the most frequently asked questions on google about this city is “does anyone live in naypyidaw?” So i played into that concept by making an abstract looking street and placing one tiny person on it. Naypyidaw isn’t only infamous for its emptiness, it also houses the union parliament building which i used the silhouette of on the instagram post design due to its intricacy which wouldn’t be suitable for a big poster. There is also a big sculpture of a lotus placed in naypyidaw’s ministry zone which i integrated as well.
