🌍 Graphic Map of the World – Oxford Cartographers
A Striking, Typography-Driven Celebration of Our Planet
Step closer. At first glance, you see a bold, colourful world map. Look again—and you’ll discover the magic. Every country is not just labelled, it is its label. The landmasses themselves are formed entirely from the names of the nations they represent. It’s geography reimagined—an artistic fusion of design, information, and wonder that draws the eye and sparks conversation.
Created by the master cartographers at Oxford, this map doesn’t just tell you where things are—it tells a story about the shape, scale, and presence of each country in the world. From the vast, stretched letters of Russia to the compact curves of Fiji, every detail is a testament to the beauty of design and the fascination of geography.
