Assignment 5

Map With Interesting Typeface

This is a map of Egypt from 1450 made in 1923. I think it has great examples of different uses of typeface to show information on the map. However, some lettering on this map is very dense and is illegible in some areas.

Map of National Parks

This map shows a the National parks here in the United States. It is a nice map to look at but much of the text is hard to read which makes it very impractical to be displayed on a small piece of paper.

Geographic.org is a site with map examples of every country and continent in the world. They are also free to upload onto a website as long as credit is given to the site.

Ndesign Studios is a great website to learn how to use many different tools in Adobe Illustrator. This will be important when we start making maps in that program.

Web CT is a link to the class website to look up class assignments and other important information pertaining to the class.
