According to the Real Academia Española, el diezmo (English: tithe) is the tribute of ten percent on the value of certain goods received by the king. El Diezmo is also the name of a historical working class neighborhood belonging to the city of Almería, Spain. This series of three posters aims to recall and reconnect the name of the neighborhood with its own reality.

  1. Amazing concept bro!

    I have heard many stories about this area in Almería. My grandparents used to lived there. People hanged out in the streets with flamenco music and goldfinch birds.

  2. Nice, I love the grain in the mockup. The headline fits really nice between those two coins.
