Indiana Dunes Travel Poster, National Park

The Indiana Dunes are handled in the flat color and graphic style of a classic travel poster, the landscape simplified to its essentials. Sand, water, and shoreline come through as bold shapes rather than detailed scenery, which is exactly what gives the style its appeal.

Stair walls and hallways take posters like this well, and a den or mudroom works equally fine. It gains strength when hung alongside other state and park posters, building a collection that tells a travel story.

Hikers who have walked the dunes, nature lovers, and Indiana natives are the audience. Give it as a present after a trip, or as the beginning of a travel-poster wall someone will keep adding to over time.
