What you will get

A 1920s Art Deco travel poster for your destination with geometric gold and colour shapes, symmetrical fan patterns, a stylised landmark, elegant condensed lettering at top and bottom and a vintage paper texture, portrait 2:3.

Why it works

Art Deco used geometric shapes, fan patterns, gold and tall condensed lettering, and the prompt lists each. A stylised landmark and textured vintage paper complete the 1920s look. Three or four colours, as the tip says, keep it authentic.

Common mistake

The destination name is misspelt in the lettering.

Fix: Keep the name short and in quotes. If a letter is wrong, remove the words and add the lettering in a design tool with a condensed font.

Also watch for

Too many colours spoil the period look. Follow the tip: 3 or 4 colours only, for example gold, navy, cream and teal.
The landmark is drawn realistically instead of in a flat Deco style. Say “the landmark simplified into bold geometric shapes and straight lines, flat colour, no photographic detail”.

Try a variation: railway poster

Change the subject to “a steam train crossing a bridge, with speed lines and a rising sun made of gold rays”. The geometry suits trains and ships as well as landmarks.
