A strikingly unique world map showing time zones and land area made up of hexagons. The map uses the Lambert Azimuthal projection centred on 165° West longitude.
The Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection maintains land features at their true relative sizes while simultaneously maintaining a true sense of direction from the centre. The world is projected onto a flat surface from any point on the globe.
The map can come either printed on heavyweight 160 gsm paper or laminated. The paper version is perfect for framing under glass, and the laminated version is exceptionally hard-wearing as we use a true encapsulation of two pieces of 80-micron gloss laminate.
Alternatively, we can supply this map on 395 gsm HP Professional Matte Canvas using pigment-based inks - making the map highly durable and fade resistant. The exceptional clarity of printing makes this map a stunning addition to any room, and its high quality means that it will provide years of enjoyment.
The easiest way to hang your canvas map is by having wooden hang rollers attached top and bottom with a hanging cord on the top roller, so all you have to do is put a hook on the wall. The hang rails come lacquered in a natural timber colour.
Note: Please allow ten working days to deliver hang railed maps as they need to be attached by our framer.
