Smashing Wallpaper

💡 IDEA ✏️ MOCK-UP 🖼️ FINAL DESIGN

In 2016, I participated in the monthly wallpaper competition organised by Smashing Magazine. Instead of focussing on the holidays, I decided take inspiration from one of my fondest winter memories. I decided to recreate a picture I took while on holidays in Austria. Since flat design was all the rage back then and it fit the sharp angles of the mountains and trees, I went with it all the way. I also added a the fun detail of incorporating the calendar on the wooden planks of the chalet.
