The Future Mapping Company Classic World Wall Map

Product Description

Perfect harmony. A balanced, gently curved design that’s bursting with information. A contemporary tribute to the familiar schoolroom map & is perfect for map-lovers of all ages. This projection gives a unbiased balance between shape & size to the countries & continents. It is widely respected having been brought to prominence by the National Geographic. Arthur Robinson worked by eye to create this solution to the age-old problem of flattening a sphere, & we particularly enjoy the shapely curves of the meridian lines. The maps are printed to the highest quality FSC approved silk-coated paper using a lithographic printing process. This works like a mechanised version of traditional screen-printing. A plate is made for each colour & then laid down individually, offering a stunning-quality print, with great definition & colour impact. A sealer is applied to protect the inks & gloss UV varnish used to add contrast & highlight boundaries.
