After reading my posts about maps, my friend Elaine wrote to tell me about a typographic map she’d gotten for Christmas, with all of the districts/neighborhoods in type — smaller or larger to fit in the appropriate location. Turns out I knew exactly what she got — the map to the right, from Ork Posters. (They’ve done maps of Seattle, Manhattan, Chicago, Toronto and more.) I’ve seen these before, and sent the link to more than one person, but had quite forgot about them — so I’m posting here so I’ll be reminded of them again when I browse my map posts… |
Mmmm….love it.
Gave you a shout today on my blog.
I love these posters, too. I gave a San Francisco poster as Christmas gifts to both of my daughters, who no longer live in their hometown of SF. What’s more, they each got an additional ORK poster, depicting their new homes, New York City and Washington, D.C.
