在这本畅销书的修订和扩展版中,当代地图制作领域得到了最新发展。
几百年以来,我们一直使用制图工具来描绘我们周围的环境和整个世界,并将它们传达给其他人。在我们的卫星导航系统和谷歌地图时代,个人对我们周围地理的解释变得越来越重要。 新一代的设计师,插画家和制图者一直在探索自己对各种形式的解说性制图的热情,而《世界地图》就是他们引人入胜的作品的合集。此更新版本包含他们作品的更多示例,从详细的描绘到个人的,天真的和现代的解释,不一而足。
The world of contemporary mapmaking is brought up-to-date in this revised and expanded edition of a best-selling book.
For centuries we have used the tools of cartography to represent both our immediate surroundings and the world at large―and to convey them to others. In our age of satellite navigation systems and Google Maps, personal interpretations of the geography around us are becoming even more relevant. A new generation of designers, illustrators, and mapmakers have been discovering their passion for various forms of illustrative cartography and A Map of the World is a compelling collection of their work. This updated edition contains even more examples of their output, ranging from detailed representations to personal, naive, and contemporary interpretations.
