I'm always excited to find new cartographic artists. Here are some maps from Julian Hoffman Anton. The first one is his Tokyo Eat Map. I've cropped the map a bit to fit the format of this page. To see it all click here.
This is really a heat map showing restaurant density. Egg yolks represent the highest concentrations. Outside of the dense egg area individual restaurants are indicted by green pegs. In place of a legend there words around the top of the bowl pointing to neighborhoods and examples. This is one of the most clever maps I've seen in a long time.
He has also represented transit networks of Tokyo and London in neon,
wine regions of France as spills of wine over a hunk of cheese,
and the Great Fire of London as fire.
There's plenty more map goodness to discover
here, as well as other visualizations, digital art and photography on his
main page.
