Illustrated maps can capture more than just a geographical area. They can be used to highlight the essence and character of a place, in a visually captivating way. They can guide users to hidden gems and educate with local facts. Good map design is not just for towns and tourist sites, they can also add huge value to events such a festivals where guests need to quickly get orientated and be informed.
At Overt we love combining clear topographic design with characterful illustrations to bring your map to life. We have helped town councils and business across the South West to put their unique place ‘on the map’.
We love ‘map chat’ so give us a call to discuss your ideas.
