How to make it

Four steps, about a minute of your time. These are real screens from the run above.

  1. 01

    Name the place

    Type where (a city, a coast, a park, your hometown), describe what it should show if you have a view in mind, pick a style and choose up to four posters.

  2. 02

    Watch the posters get drawn

    The AI writer picks a different iconic view for each poster and writes a tagline and a Visit line. Seedream 5 paints each one in flat, layered color with a screen-print texture, then Idyllic sets the place name in faces like Bebas Neue, Staatliches or Abril Fatface. Preview the plan free.

Why it beats
a template

01

The classic poster look

Flat shapes, bold simplified color and a screen-print texture, with a big sky at the top and a calm foreground for the name, the way golden-age railway and resort posters were drawn.

02

Any place, even yours

Famous coastlines and national parks, but also your hometown or the lake where you spent your summers. Describe the view and the poster follows it.

03

Six styles

Classic vintage, Art deco, Mid-century, National park, Retro surf and Minimal flat each change the drawing, the palette and the lettering.

04

Real type, spelled right

The place name, tagline and Visit line are set as real text, so small towns and long names come out exactly as you typed them.

05

A gift that means something

A poster of a honeymoon spot, a family hometown or a first trip together makes a personal gift. Add a date or names in Canvas.

06

Print-ready shape

Posters are 2:3 portrait, the same shape as 12×18 and 24×36 in prints.

What makes a travel poster work

  • Pick one view, not a list of landmarks. The best posters show a single moment.
  • Describe the light: dawn on the cliffs, sunset over the harbor, snow on the peaks.
  • Keep the tagline short enough to read across the room.
  • For a personal poster, add the detail only you would know: the blue door, the little boat, the café table.
  • Make a matching set: the same style for three places you have been.
  • Leave room around the place name if a frame mat will cover the edges.

Questions

Can I make a poster of my hometown?

Yes. Type the place and describe the view you picture under What should it show: the harbor, the main street, the water tower. The more specific the view, the more it looks like home.

What size is a travel poster?

Common sizes are 12×18, 18×24 and 24×36 in. Idyllic designs at 2:3 (1080×1620 px), the same shape as 12×18 and 24×36, and the Large export is 2160×3240 px.

Can I change the tagline or the Visit line?

Yes. All three lines are real text. Rewrite them, add a date or names for a gift, or switch to any of 144 fonts in Canvas.

Are these copies of real vintage posters?

No. Each illustration is new, drawn in the manner of classic travel posters: flat color, simple shapes and bold type.

Which style should I choose?

Classic vintage and Art deco suit cities and coasts, National park suits mountains and forests, Retro surf suits beaches, and Mid-century or Minimal flat suit a modern room.

Can I sell travel posters I make?

Paid plans include a commercial license, so you can sell prints. Leave out logos and brand names you do not own, like an airline's or a hotel's.
