The Icelandic collective Borgarmynd has created some beautiful hand-drawn maps. Their Reykjavik Center Map is 1 of my favorite always online interactive maps.
The Reykjavik Center Map is a hand-drawn watercolor map of the Icelandic capital. The map is made upward of 186 A3 form out watercolor sheets, which took a squad of architects as well as designers 2 years to complete. To practise the watercolors Borgarmynd hired a airplane to wing over Reykjavik to capture photographs of nigh every household inward the urban heart from the same angle. They as well as thence used urban heart planning ground-plans to ensure the accuracy of the completed watercolors.
Every tree, flagpole as well as other object on the map is based on actual objects inward the city. The map is also updated every twelvemonth to add together newly constructed buildings as well as other changes to the city, such equally buildings beingness repainted inward novel colors.
Borgarmynd is also responsible for Iceland Illustrated, a hand-drawn map of the whole country. As good equally the lovingly hand-drawn Icelandic terrain, the map contains the locations of hotels, restaurants as well as other points of involvement inward Iceland.
The map also contains around 200 photos of Iceland's wonderful natural environment.
