Prettymaps


Chicago

DC
Paris
New York
San Francisco

Maps?  Really?  I had to do a double take when I found these delightful abstract maps by Aaron Straup Cope on 20x200.  To be honest, I never jumped on the post-college "lets hang a map of the city I live in" train (you know you did it...) but these maps are different, they're modern, abstract and just plain pretty, hence the name, Prettymaps.  So now, almost 5 years out of school, I'm giving in and hanging the DC map in my bedroom.  I know I live in Chicago but I prefer the look of the DC map...I mean I'm hanging it to remind me of my bf who live in DC...don't judge ;)
