Attractive map helps a cause

The Asheville Map, an inaugural project from Best Local Maps, will be included in the North American Cartographic Information Society’s Atlas of Design, which features the world’s most beautiful and intriguing cartographic designs. 

The paper map of central and metro Asheville is true to scale using an aesthetically rendered topographic base. Highly detailed, including restaurants, breweries, art spaces, entertainment venues, parks, neighborhoods and landmarks, the map articulates the local fabric of the Asheville area. A digital guide accessed through the map’s Smart Corners links to the hundreds of curated points of interest labeled on the map.

The  Asheville Map brings to fruition the map that creator Bruce Daniel and his wife, Nora, wished was available when they first came to Asheville ten years ago. Each map sold benefits MANNA FoodBank, which unites people to end hunger in Western North Carolina.
