Remixing Lille — Abstract architectural collages
Remixing Lille is a self-initiated creative exploration that transforms urban architecture into surreal digital collages. Inspired by the varied facades, doorways and rooflines from a recent trip to Lille, France, this project reimagines city streetscapes into abstract geometric house illustrations.
Inspiration & Process
Architectural sampling: Sourced visual elements from Google Maps and street-level imagery taken during a trip to Lille.
Digital collage techniques: Sliced, reassembled and mixed distinct architectural elements to create modular, abstract house shapes that capture the architectural character of the city.
Brand context: Applied the abstract illustrations across a conceptual brand – Airbnb. I wanted to explore how playful, surreal visuals elevate the experience of searching for a unique stay. Creative animation for an Airbnb ad, web page updates and poster designs.
Project Disclaimer: This is a non-commercial, self-directed conceptual project created for creative experimentation and portfolio display. All original brand trademarks belong to their respective owners.
The digital collages were applied to other Airbnb branded elements such as a search page and poster design.
