The steep and narrow alleys at Mont Martre are just as iconic for Paris as its long and famous boulevards or the many cafés. Depicting more than sixty characteristics of Paris, this artwork collects the authentic soul of Paris in just one print, counting everything from the small bookshop booths along the Seine to the overall epitomic Eiffel Tower. Even the typeface has been specially designed for this poster, thus emphasizing the art deco movement, on which Paris has had such a big impact.

The London poster by Martin Schwartz gives you the vibes of the English capital. Take a walk in the streets of London and you cannot help but to feel mesmerized by this city's magnificent atmosphere.

Maybe this is what the peculiar Orbit Tower is trying to symbolize, as its red and twisted constructions of steel flaunt towards the sky near the Olympic stadion from 2012.
