La Concha / 30” x 24”
My design for La Mesa was inspired by the harmony of traditional meeting the modern design world. I created a space for people who are tired of their simple white coffee shops and decided to give this coffee shop a loud style, like the culture it comes from. In my “La Concha” poster I was inspired specifically by the lines from Art Nouveau and Art Deco, Catholic Church arches and stained-glass windows, as well as the decorative frescos on Mexican houses and buildings. I included wheat grain in my poster to reference back to sweet bread, and a warm coffee cup to be inviting. I chose pinks, and tans to play off the colors you mostly likely find conchas to be as well as to give this coffee shop a bright, refreshing color palette.
