Maps & Trails
I design clear, engaging maps and trails that combine geographic information and storytelling to create resources that are accessible and easy to use. From heritage trails and community projects to political and public-facing communications, my approach focuses on simplifying complex information while retaining the character and identity of each place.
The brief:
To make places, routes and information easy to understand through clear, engaging visual design.
The audience:
Designed for a wide range of audiences, from local communities and visitors to members of the public with different levels of knowledge and accessibility needs.
The challenges:
Balancing accuracy, clarity and visual appeal while managing complex layouts, scale, proportion and the detailed illustration required to bring places to life.
The solution:
Applying information design principles along with illustration to organise content and establish clear, intuitive navigation.
The result:
A collection of clear, attractive maps and trails that help people understand where they are, where they’re going and what they’re looking at.
