Taking the side view idea into Illustrator and producing an image of the Pompidou centre:
Then reviewing my reference image and changing the structures in the background:
I think that the image has turned out well - a side view that flattens the image works well at a postcard format and conveys the building without showing the whole thing.
However, I'm not sure that the same can be done to such an extent for the other buildings I have chosen to illustrate, so I should probably look at how the Louvre can be expressed as a postcard as well and how the rest of my illustrations will follow suit through simplification:
These pages show the structures I've chosen to illustrate simplified into shapes of block colour and few lines (as well as my thumbnails for the Mitad del Mundo). This is probably the way I should go for the postcards
