Chandigarh Brochure
Hinting at geopolitics through architectural brutalism
CHALLENGE
The Punjab region of India was ripped in two in 1947. A new capital, Chandigarh, was constructed as an architectural utopia designed by renowned brutalist Le Corbusier. How can we market an architectural tour of Le Corbusier’s Chandigarh without giving away too much to interested customers?
ROLE
Graphic designer
OUTPUT
A visual identity that hints at the geopolitical origins of the rise—and subsequent fall—of Chandigarh by drawing on the structure of brutalist aesthetics and pairing it with abstracted imagery of tour highlights.
