In his poetry, Apollinaire enjoyed mixing sensory effects in his language, and he often played with unexpected combinations of words. Apollinaire also experimented with the visual appearance of his poems, using unconventional layouts and typography. He pioneered a type of verse called an "ideogram," which was equally a picture and a poem: the lines of the poem were arranged in the shape of the object it described, such as a heart, a bird or the Eiffel Tower.
