Hacienda Poster by Retrodrome People

Hacienda Poster by Retrodrome PeopleThe Hacienda defined Manchester's cultural moment a club born from Factory Records that became the epicentre of Madchester, acid house, and the second Summer of Love. Retrodrome's design captures that era's graphic confidence: bold colour blocking, industrial geometry, and strong typographic choices that echo the club's own legendary design identity shaped by Ben Kelly. The composition is assertive and cool, with the restraint of Bauhaus tradition

The composition is unusually vertical

and deep blue floats against an open sky with the kind of impossible calm that only vintage graphic art achieves

and soft pinks

the stream carrying light through the lower half of the frame

the layered warm tones and the soft dissolution of form reproduce with full fidelity and tonal depth

Ejaaz Haniff works in a register that fuses mid-century graphic sensibility with tribal pattern and digital collage

Gas lamps from the city bank stretch luminous reflections across the river's dark surface

its biomorphic symmetry anticipating developments in abstract art by decades

It is botanical illustration at its most accomplished: accurate

reconsiders

and the layered elements create a sense of psychological depth rather than surface spectacle

The overall effect sits between scientific archive and wall-worthy artwork
