Typomaps (4 pics)

We've been seeing some incredibly creative maps lately, and this one by Dirk Schächter is no exception.

Combining geography with typography, the German designer handcrafted each country's name to correspond with its respective land mass. The double-sided poster is dark blue on one side and light blue on the other. Helvetica Neue Black Condensed is Schächter's font of choice. 49€ /$69
