明石印刷旅行海报

Goal: Create a stylish illustrated travel poster for Akashi, Japan, using the city name as giant typographic window letters filled with local scenery.

Canvas: Wide horizontal poster, 16:9 aspect ratio, warm off-white paper background, clean mid-century Japanese travel-poster aesthetic with crisp vector line art, limited palette of ocean blue, teal, cream, brick red, coral orange, and dark navy outlines.

Layout: A thin panoramic skyline strip runs across the top edge, showing exactly 9 recognizable elements from left to right: a red sun, a ferry on the water, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, small birds in the sky, a waterfront city skyline, a red Ferris wheel, a train along the shore, green hills behind the city, and a lighthouse/harbor building cluster. The center is dominated by huge block letters spelling AKASHI, each letter acting as a cutout containing illustrated city scenes. The bottom has small destination typography, icons, coordinates, and a short Japanese text block.

Letter interiors: Use exactly 6 giant letters. Letter A contains Akashi Castle on a hill above blue water with a small fishing boat. Letter K contains a shopping street with vertical Japanese signs, a red tram or bus, and an octopus shop sign reading “UONOTANA”. Letter A contains a white lighthouse on a stone pier with sailboats and sea. Letter S contains Akashi Castle, green pine trees, stone walls, and a small bridge over water. Letter H contains a modern station and high-rise city buildings, including a sign reading “JR Akashi Station”. Letter I contains an orange sunset sky, the bridge in the background, and a large clock monument on a brick base.

Text content: Large central word: AKASHI. Beneath it, centered red spaced letters: “JAPAN”. Beneath that: “AKASHI CITY”. Add an anchor icon and coordinates: “34.6513° N, 134.9855° E”. Bottom left small lighthouse icon with English slogan: GATEWAY TO KOBE. BRIDGE TO TOMORROW. AKASHI, JAPAN. Bottom right circular bridge-and-waves icon plus Japanese city label and tagline: 明石市 豊かな自然と歴史、未来へつなぐまち。.

Visual style: Flat vector illustration, precise architectural details, subtle paper grain, nostalgic travel-advertising composition, strong geometric typography, no photorealism, no 3D rendering, no people in close-up, clean margins, balanced negative space, sharp readable lettering.
