Surface View's Vintage Map Blind

Bold and Noble's London Map

Famille Summerbelle NYC Map

Large, wall mounted maps were always traditionally a sign of wealth – when global travel was a novelty as well as a luxury. Nowadays, maps have moved on from the usual country or road variety to quirky, hand printed pieces of art. Bold colours and graphic imagery bring cities alive when placed in a monochrome frame. I’m loving this Famille Summerbelle version of New York City in eye catching Poppy Red by  Caroline McGrath.
