Lab 3

I used Calibri, was that right?

Typography Map

A map of Vancouver with all of the neighborhood labels forced into their geographic space. I wouldn't want to navigate with it, but it looks great. That font looks like it wants to give you a hug.

Lab 2

I'm fairly happy with how this turned out, I think. I love Bauhaus 93 as a font, it's got a weird turn of the century art deco vibe to it.

This map was just taken from google maps/earth, but it highlights the same distance using two different projections in a way that shows the curvature of the earth very nicely.

I found it here.
