Design: Swordy

In my Graphic Design in Cartography course in spring 2022 we were asked to design a Mapbox tileset to help promote a the release of a new film. My movie is a swords and sorcerers-type, medieval era fantasy where wild dragons are a constant threat. I chose to add simple textures to the forests, mountains and water to give the map a hand-drawn look. I also chose type that implies a hand-drawn old-English style. I chose symbols for cities and towns that represent the ominous militaristic and religious themese of the film. All of the data is open source and largely sourced from OpenStreetMap and Natural Earth.
