Accessories: Future Maps from the UK

November 23, 2007

I recently discovered Future Maps, a series of high-quality, graphically sophisticated maps in vivid colors such as red, pink, lime, and gold from designer Marcus Kirby. The maps are printed on silk-finished paper and are created using “cylindrical equal area projection,” which means the countries are represented in their correct proportional size. You can buy them online from Future Maps; also, Design Within Reach recently began carrying a selection, including the Large Paper Future Map for $180 and the Small Paper Future Map for $80.
