Posters geneva
Geneva as seen by our artists: the water jet, the lake and the line of the Alps. Each poster is a personal reading of travel, hand-printed on 220 gsm art paper with an anti-glare satin finish in our workshop in Grasse.
Bien choisir votre affiche Genève
Which Geneva poster should you choose?
Geneva comes in several registers, and they do not tell the same city:
- Jet d'Eau poster: the white column on Lake Geneva, the city's most recognisable silhouette.
- Lake Geneva and Alps poster: the water, the sails, the mountains behind, a blue and pink palette.
- Geneva old town poster: Saint-Pierre cathedral, lanes, the roofs of the hill.
- Geneva map or city plan poster: the lake, the Rhône, the districts traced in line.
- Geneva watchmaking poster: movements, dials, a spirit of precision.
- Black and white Geneva poster: water, stone, sky, contrasts without colour.
The filters on the left narrow things down by dominant colour, by style and by mood.
Where should you hang a Geneva poster?
- Living room: the lake and the Alps in a large size, alone above the sofa.
- Office: a watch movement or a map, precise and calm beside the screen.
- Bedroom: a pale blue and pink palette, settled, with no hard contrast.
- Entrance: a map of Geneva, to place the city from the door.
- Hallway: a series of three Swiss cities, same size and same frame.
Tip: the Jet d'Eau is a white vertical on a pale ground. It needs a dark frame or a slightly tinted wall, or it dissolves into the wall.
Geneva poster: lake or city?
- The lake widens: water, sails, mountains, sky, with no identifiable architecture.
- The city tightens: cathedral, quays, facades, a recognisable silhouette.
- In a bedroom, the lake settles the room and takes a large size without tiring.
- In an entrance, the city names the place straight away, which the lake does not.
Poster, print or picture: what is the difference?
All three words mean the same thing here: a printed image that you hang on the wall. We say poster because we print on fine art paper, not on canvas or metal.
- With frame: black, white, oak or walnut, assembled and ready to hang.
- Without frame: the sheet alone, to slide into the frame you already have.
