Product Description

The Monochrome Classic World Map is a contemporary tribute to the familiar schoolroom map, perfect for cartophiles of all ages, featuring the standard Robinson projection. Arthur Robinson was a cartographer who worked by eye to create a solution to the age-old problem of flattening a sphere, resulting in the recognizable, shapely curves of the meridian lines. This projection gained worldwide appreciation when it was adopted by National Geographic in 1988, and is now the scale used by most official maps. North and South Pole projections as well as all the usual mountain ranges, rivers and city data, make this map an ideal point of reference for anything you might be looking for.

Featuring metallic seas and gloss-varnished landmasses in sublime shades, the paper version of this map is printed on the highest-quality, FSC-approved silk-coated paper, but it is also available in a plastic gloss finish that can be written on and wiped off like a whiteboard, and a magnetic metal version that can hold notes or photos, like a refrigerator door.

Each print is made using a lithographic printing process that works like a mechanized version of traditional screen printing. A plate is made for each color and then laid down individually, creating a stunning effect with maximum definition and impact. A sealer is applied to protect the inks and gloss UV varnish is used to add contrast and highlight boundaries.
