TULIP FIELDS

 For a charity auction in Amsterdam, I was asked to design a poster to be part of the auction. However, I wasn’t given a brief so I needed to come up with an idea.

Whilst flying into Amsterdam I would always see the colourful and gridded tulip fields from above, I decided to turn this into an abstract graphic poster. 

The posters design is made up of large colour blocks, but a closer look reveals that these blocks are actually made up from thousands of tiny tulip icons.

Further to the auction, I sold posters and postcards at art fairs in Amsterdam. I displayed 2 magnifying glasses on the table so people could interact with the design and see the small tulip design.

I was later asked to design an album cover for the artist We Are OK using the Tulip Fields design.
