Let’s see how the Design Community is getting inspired with maps
- Landscape architecture grad student adds too many lines to site plan
- Old map vandalized with Blender shaded relief
- Portolan map
- That cool twisty map of Mississippi River meanders
- Bizarrely-tinted version of the 1978 Nat Geo masterpiece "Heart of the Grand Canyon"
- AI slop
It's not easy having the only crumb of map discernment on the whole, entire internet

The Sonoran and Mojave Deserts are incredibly diverse, serving as habitat for migratory birds and wildlife.
USGS researchers and our partners combined satellite data, decadal plant growth cycles, and extensive ground verifications to map nearly 148 million acres at a sharp 30-meter resolution.
The resulting framework classifies 152 different vegetation and land cover types across both the United States and Mexico. Hosted as an interactive online tool by @uarizona, this map can be rapidly updated with new field observations to detect environmental shifts over time.
This non-biased science provides foundational data to regional public land managers, helping them understand habitat distribution and plan for long-term resource stability.

Charles Lacouture, Trilobe Synoptique (1890).
Created before the modern RGB color model, the diagram attempts to map all colors through combinations of red, yellow, and blue, reflecting 19th CE theories of pigment mixing and color harmony.

🎉 We've updated our population cartogram with the latest (2023) data from @OurWorldInData! A lot has changed since the 2018 one, which used 2016 data.
Create your own at https://t.co/4f30kEheQI > Choropleth map, then search for "population squares."
Maurice Prendergast's color world.
Across beaches, gardens, promenades, and parks, Prendergast returns to the same chromatic vocabulary: ochres, creams, blues, greens, and bursts of orange.
Four palette readings from Meditations in Color.
Tobias Mayer’s triangular color chart (1758).
Created by an astronomer and cartographer, it was an early attempt to represent color through geometry than symbolism or pigment alone.
Later reproduced by Georg Christoph Lichtenberg in Opera Inedita (1775).
📍Las desapariciones en México tienen historia.
No comenzaron ayer y tampoco han terminado.
Por eso construimos una línea del tiempo interactiva 🧭 que conecta hechos, contextos y momentos clave para entender cómo esta violencia se ha expandido en el país.
Detrás de cada fecha hay personas desaparecidas, familias que buscan 🔎 y años de exigencia ante la falta de respuestas.
Explórala aquí ⬇️

George Hurst, Colour (1900).
Hurst was a Scottish chemist, dye expert, and color theorist.
Looking back, many of these diagrams feel unexpectedly modern. Looking forward, they helped establish some of the foundations on which 20th CE color theory would be built.
