The next installment of the venerable Scream franchise will be hitting the silver screen soon, and a new poster promoting it was released on January 1. Seeing as the movie is set in New York and the 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划trailer has shown that the subway plays a part in the plot, it almost seems inevitable that the poster would riff on a subway map theme. Here, each route line corresponds to a movie, with Line 6 […]
Here🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s a fantastic poster designed as the centre spread of an advertising supplement to various Bay Area newspapers to celebrate the 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划ten years of BART (1972–1982). The immediately recognisable system diagram is overlaid on top of some charming line illustrations of landmarks and attractions, with the routes of BART Express buses also indicated. It🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s all very simple – the illustration looks like it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s been done with some coloured fine felt-tip pens – but it🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s […]
Now this I love! One of a series of posters celebrating the more relaxed pace of life along the northeast branch lines of JR East’s network in Japan. The posters are a collaborative effort led by artist Philippe Weisbecker, who has integrated (pretty detailed!) children’s drawings into the designs.

Via: kevincannonart: Metro Transit asked me to create a map celebrating the new A Line. Posters will be available during the grand opening festivities on June 11. Here’s a great poster by artist Kevin Cannon for the opening of Minneapolis’ curious new “BRT-lite” A Line bus service. While it will have 10 minute headways, branded buses (with WiFi, because god forbid we live two seconds of 🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划life without fast Internet), and stops with nice station-like […]
By the mid-1930s, the London Underground’s 🔸澳洲10开奖网址 line was suffering from congestion caused by the limited capacity of its tracks between Baker Street and Finchley Road stations. To relieve this pressure, a tunnel was constructed between the Bakerloo line’s platforms at Baker Street and Finchley Road and three 🔸澳洲10开奖网址 line stations (Lord’s, Marlborough Road and Swiss Cottage) were replaced with two new Bakerloo stations (St. John’s Wood and Swiss Cottage). The Bakerloo line took over […]
A lovely celebratory poster for the Metro’s opening year, showing the overall envisioned network at the time. Only a short section of the red Linea 1 was actually open initially – as can be seen running across the poster about a third of the way down – and the eventual system as built today is substantially different to this vision (March 2014, 3.5 stars). Of particular interest are the black diamonds dotted liberally around the […]
We’ve covered to-scale maps on 澳洲10开官网开奖 before (See here and here), but I do really like this poster of every subway/rapid transit system in the world – 140 in all – to scale, organised by system size by Neil Freeman. Posters are available from his website for $20 plus postage – a late addition to the Holiday Gift Guide! Source: Fake is the New Real
Words cannot express just how much I love this beautiful, beautiful map by Maxwell Roberts, whose work I’ve featured on the blog many times previously. I had the privilege of seeing this map “in the flesh” at the New York Transit Museum event I attended earlier this month, and it looks even more impressive as an actual print. The map is inspired by the work of the famous architect and designer, Frank Lloyd Wright – most […]
Seeing as I’m just back from the Big Apple, and as Tommi has now put his awesome map up on Society6 for sale, I thought this would be a good place to launch 澳洲10开官网开奖’ inaugural “Holiday Gift Guide”! Although Society6 offers prints in many sizes, I would definitely only purchase either the large ($39) or extra-large ($52) prints, due to the fine detail and small type in this map.

Question: How do you decide on the overall dimensions and aspect ratio 🔸澳洲开奖 creating a new map? Answer: For my personal map projects, the aspect ratio is the 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划thing I decide upon. I generally try to stick with standard formats that are compatible with framing – these being 1:1 (square), and 3:2 or 4:3 rectangles. Generally, I use 3:2 the most – 36″ x 24″ and 24″ x 16″ are great finished sizes and […]
