The poster your favorite place never had !
Hi everyone,
I’m working on a small side project called AffichAI
The idea is "Every place deserves a beautiful poster"
Not just Paris, New York, or Tokyo but villages, small towns, local landmarks, hometowns, holiday spots, childhood places, or personal travel memories that usually don’t exist in poster shops.
The goal is not to build another generic AI image generator. I’m trying to create a more guided flow for turning a meaningful place into a style poster that could actually be printed and hung.
There are currently two directions:
Create an inspired poster from a place The user enters a city, village, region, monument, or meaningful place. The poster is an artistic interpretation of that place.
Turn your real photo into a poster The user uploads a photo when they want the result to reflect a real landscape, monument, or memory more faithfully.
I’m trying to validate a few things before polishing the product too much:
Would people actually want this as wall art, or is it just visually fun?
Does the “places nobody makes posters about” angle make sense?
Would you rather start from a place name, from a personal photo, or from both?
What usually makes this kind of poster feel too AI-generated: typography, composition, landmarks, smoothness, wrong details, something else?
If printing and delivery were integrated, would that make the product significantly more useful than just downloading an image?
I’d appreciate honest feedback, especially on the positioning, workflow, and poster quality.
If you want to test the idea, comment with a place + 2 or 3 elements you associate with it, and I’ll try generating a few examples.
