I have based my design inspiration for this graphic around the architectural heritage of my hometown of Birmingham. Dominating the Birmingham skyline since post WW2. Brutalism has been a key characteristic of Birmingham’s Aesthetic. I was inspired by the diverse range of textures, lines and shapes Brutalism provides, as well as what Brutalism reflects upon, such as exposure, necessity, and functionality. This in comparison draws upon the in-depth history of Birmingham’s functional attributes to the world. Birmingham’s has been at the heart of many industries at a global scale, the pen, gun, and automotive industries to name a few. This graphic celebrates Birmingham and its contribution to the world.
