Take a virtual walk down the streets of Tel Aviv with these illustrations of the city’s facades by graphic designer Avner Gicelter. “My aim is to capture the unique essence of the building‘s features in my illustrations, using a minimal set of graphic elements,” he explained. “After the building‘s illustration is done I choose a background color out of a palette and a typeface that will reflect what I refer to as a Tel Avivian atmosphere.”
Gicelter first had the idea to capture the unique architecture in Tel Aviv‘s city center when apartment hunting in 2013. “I got more interested in the building’s facade than in the apartments we were looking at,” he said. Since then he has illustrated over 70 different buildings.
Check out some of Gicelter’s illustrations after the break and visit his website to learn more. His illustrations are also available for purchase on Etsy.
