When you create a bespoke map illustration, you are creating something unique. Every map is a work of art. Similarly, the technique of creating map illustration is to play with scale and size. Consequently, this features the key elements of the design. Illustrated maps are not photographs. Instead, they are artistic enhancements of an areas best features.

Thirdly, and most importantly, an aerial view focuses on the dimensions and scale of an area. This focus, combined with the artistic flair, allows the map to showcase the landscapes prominent parts. This technique creates a recognizable map. But this illustrated map is one that offers much more than location.

Moreover, illustrated maps help the viewer see just what you want them to see. First, they allow the viewer to focus on the most exciting areas to isolate the beauty, the style, the sharp features, or the overall feeling created in an area. For instance, this map illustration technique combines the familiar with the beautiful.

Also, Illustrated maps are about more than merely showing the location of buildings and natural features. Its about how these items work together. How the perspective of the scenery changes as the artists perspective shifts. Besides, map illustrators stretch the perspective of audiences. After that, they help them find new ways to visualize the familiar. And in the process, create stunning works of art.

Our illustrated maps are individually hand-drawn and colored digitally, so they have a watercolor look but could be adjusted if necessary. The final artwork will be delivered in a high-resolution digital format on the required layers and ready for printing and use as an interactive version.

In the same vein, our Custom Map Illustration can be created at a size that you request, portrait, or landscape.
