My theme revolves around cityscape/urban style. Referring to the works of traditional artist Joseph Muller-Brockmann. 

 

As you can see the first thing you notice about the design is circles. The circles start from the left side and radiate circles onto circles before being dissected into geometric shapes as the design focuses on precision. The geometric rhythms of the concentric arc relate directly to the mathematical systems and structures present in Beethoven's music. Every element has a reason for its size, placement, and position with the dramatic changes in the proportion of the concentric arcs echoing the drama of Beethoven’s music. The monotonous colours cancel the emotions out of the poster focusing on strict, rigid design with a sense of order as if it's mimicking music notes on white paper as Beethoven is a famous music piece. It's minimalistic yet it has a lot of hidden details within the use of symmetric shapes composed together to make a bigger picture.

This has inspired me to do cityscape because it also has a sense of modernist design. the intricate cut shapes and positioning has inspired me to do the same wth my theme.
