The Artwork
Lisbon’s Tram 28 is an enduring symbol of the city, weaving through historic neighborhoods and connecting daily routines with the spirit of exploration. This artwork draws inspiration from the golden age of travel posters, when urban transit was celebrated as both a marvel of progress and a window onto local life. By focusing on Tram 28, the piece evokes the rhythm of Lisbon’s streets and the quiet narratives unfolding within and around the tram as it traverses the city’s iconic hills.
The design serves as a tribute to Lisbon’s unique atmosphere, framing the tram as a cultural touchstone and inviting reflection on the interplay between movement, place, and memory.
Style & Characteristics
The composition is rendered in a striking monochrome palette of black, white, and gray, lending the image a crisp, graphic quality. The tram stands as the central motif, with the surrounding architecture suggested through simplified lines and geometric forms. This minimalist approach creates a sense of order and clarity, while the subtle contrasts evoke a nostalgic, almost cinematic mood.
The overall effect is both calm and dynamic, making the print well-suited to modern and minimalist interiors. The artwork’s architectural focus and refined execution give it a timeless appeal that resonates with lovers of classic and contemporary design alike.
