Compose two styles
Rather than blending two styles into a middle, this assigns them roles: one carries the structure, the other appears as an accent. Where the two fight, it says so before you start.
How to divide the work
- Composition
- Follow Plakatstil / Sachplakat: One large product, one line of name, a solid ground
- Type
- Set in Plakatstil / Sachplakat's manner (A short, heavy hand-drawn headline), and let Turkish Republican Poster's lettering (Latin letters drawn large and regular, shaped like a copybook) appear only where you want the eye to catch.
- Material
- Ground in Plakatstil / Sachplakat's material (Two to four colors, shadowless imagery, clean contours); bring in exactly one thing from Turkish Republican Poster (Around three flat lithographic colors with shading kept minimal).
- Colour
- Build on #161515, #d39a29, #efe0bf and admit one accent from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615.
Where they fight
These two are already listed as related, so the join should come easily.
Caution
- Plakatstil / Sachplakat Simplification is not omission. Choose the one thing to keep from what makes the product itself.
- Turkish Republican Poster Taking the motifs while dropping the modernizing subject removes the instructing role they carried, so the result looks like a pastiche of old commercial art.

Mood: Trust, Exhilaration, Nostalgia. Color: build on #161515, #d39a29, #efe0bf with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615.
