Posters Mannheim
Mannheim as seen by our artists: the grid of the city between the Rhine and the Neckar. Each poster is a personal reading of travel, hand-printed on 220 gsm art paper with a semi-matte finish in our workshop in Fayence.
Choosing your Mannheim poster
Which Mannheim poster should you choose?
Mannheim lends itself to several registers, drawn from what makes it distinctive:
- Mannheim map poster: the numbered grid plan (Quadratestadt), clean lines and minimalist legend.
- Wasserturm poster: the water tower and its gardens, a recognisable silhouette by day and by night.
- Schloss Mannheim poster: the facade of the electoral palace, in a baroque architecture register.
- Mannheim skyline poster: the city seen from the Rhine or the Neckar, black and white contrast.
- Vintage Mannheim poster: old advertising typography, sepia or pastel palette.
- Rhine-Neckar confluence poster: an aerial view of where the two rivers meet.
The filters on the left narrow things down by dominant colour, by style and by size.
Where should you hang a Mannheim poster?
- Living room: a large-format map of the city, above the sofa or the sideboard.
- Office: a view of the Wasserturm or the Schloss, understated next to the screen.
- Entrance: a vintage Mannheim poster, to set the tone from the doorstep.
- Hallway: a series of district maps, same size, aligned.
- Bedroom: a black and white skyline, discreet above the bed.
Mannheim poster as a city map or as a landmark?
The grid plan tells the unique structure of the city and speaks to anyone who has lived there or visited. The landmark, Wasserturm or Schloss, carries a more immediate image and is recognisable from afar. For a gift to someone who knows Mannheim by heart, the map resonates more. To dress a wall with no explanation needed, the landmark is enough.
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 photo 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.
