11.23: Portlandness: A Cultural Atlas

2015-10-14 02:04:30| Powells Books Events Calendar

In 150 infographic maps of Portland, Oregon, two geographers explore unexpected topics like city chickens, wild coyote encounters, food-truck trends, and coffee culture. Modern cartography tells the hidden stories of Portland in these fascinating and colorful infographic maps. When mapmaking takes on nontraditional topics like patterns of graffiti, locations of strip clubs, or even which neighborhoods favor which house colors, finding your way around the city takes on a whole new meaning. Each map starts with the gathering of at least one data set about a given topic, then translates that to a visual format that blends traditional cartographic skills with modern graphic design. Portlandness: A Cultural Atlas (Sasquatch), by David Banis and Hunter Shobe, represents a new way of looking at a city.
