Visual Design and Composition Lessons from 30 Beautiful Maps

Effective design can often be found in unlikely places, both past and present.

Unsurprising because the essentials of good visual communication have been around since time immemorial. Up to now we are still learning some valuable lessons from even the oldest manifestations of graphic design.

Cartography is one great example because it balances information, color, and crucial measurement. In this article we’ll take a look at lessons we can learn from the age-old art of map-making.
