ILLUSTRATED MAPS AND CARTOGRAPHY
—gestalten. 2015

MIND THE MAP continued the documentation of the exciting work created by artists, illustrators, and graphic designers that began with A MAP OF THE WORLD, to explore even more in depth the work process of today’s mapmakers, this time with features and interviews. The volume has become a reference in the field of information graphics*.

*Information is Beautiful


For some of their creators, the act of mapmaking sometimes takes months or years of work to complete. Yet most of them would not identify themselves as cartographers. They come from different backgrounds: they are painters, illustrators, architects, designers, geographers, historians, or reporters. Only a few would describe themselves as experts or specialists.”
