1170 x 770 mm – Laminated with Natural Timber Hang Rails
Timeless. Elegant. Informative. This World Executive Wall Map from National Geographic offers a striking blend of cartographic authority and antique charm. Rendered in rich, earthy tones and finished in a traditional Pacific-centred projection, this is not just a map—it’s a sophisticated statement piece.
Whether you're charting your travels, decorating a study, or looking for the perfect gift for a geography lover, this map delivers both substance and style.
A Fresh Global Perspective
Unlike the more common Africa-centred world maps, this version uses a Pacific-centred Winkel Tripel projection, offering a refreshing view of the world that places the Asia-Pacific region at the forefront—ideal for Australians, New Zealanders, and those in the wider Pacific rim.
This projection also reduces distortion near the poles and presents countries in a balanced and proportional way—making it a more accurate and visually pleasing depiction of global geography.
Antique Aesthetics, Modern Accuracy
This is a fully up-to-date political map showing:
-
Every country with defined international boundaries
-
Major and minor cities and capitals
-
Island nations, oceanic trenches, and shipping lanes
-
Relief shading that gives a gentle sense of topography
-
Insets displaying global population density, vegetation, and land use
All information is current and layered over a muted antique-style palette, seamlessly complementing a range of interior décors.
