+In the bedroom
A1 landscapeAbove the bed, a gentle city rather than a dazzling one: the vermilion gate of Kiyomizu-dera under the cherry trees or the facades of Gamla stan in Stockholm.
+In the home office
A3 or A2Above the desk, the city where you dream of working one day. An A3 is enough above a worktable, an A2 on an open wall. More ideas in our office posters.
+In the entryway
A3 or A2The yellow tram on a cobbled street in Lisbon welcomes you above the console table. In a narrow hallway, 2 or 3 cities in A3 side by side tell your travels.
+In the dining room
Vertical A2Above a sideboard, the blue boat in Ammoudi harbor below Oia brings the blue of the Aegean Sea. Southern cities are also in our Italy posters and our Portugal posters.

Your questions
5 answers before you choose
Which world city poster should I choose as living room art?
Above a sofa, choose a landscape A1 poster: Botafogo beach in Rio, Nyhavn in Copenhagen or San Francisco Bay. A portrait A1 also works above an armchair.
Which world capitals are in the collection?
Lisbon, Rome, Amsterdam, Brussels, Prague, Budapest, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok, Manila, Buenos Aires, Bogotá, Lima, Santiago de Chile, Havana and Algiers, among others.
Are there posters of cities at night?
Yes: the neon lights of Shinjuku in the rain, the Shibuya crossing, the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai, an illuminated Broadway theater and Edinburgh Castle during the Military Tattoo.
How do I hang several cities I have visited on the same wall?
Keep the same size and the same frame, and group by region or by color: 3 southern cities in A3, or 4 northern cities in a grid. Our article Building a frame wall gives 15 hanging plans.
Do these posters look like travel postcards?
They capture their spirit: a recognizable monument or street, bold colors and the city name in capital letters at the bottom of the poster. They are recent illustrations, printed to order in France.
