The Lake District in 101 Maps & Infographics

The Lake District in 101 Maps & Infographics

Winner of The Lakeland Book of the Year 2020,
plus The Latitude Prize for Illustration and Presentation.

From the head judge Hunter Davies: ‘The most incredible book. In the 36 years of the competition, I personally haven't come across a more unusual book, a more modern book, a more inventive, imaginative book. It's actually a guide book to EVERYTHING to do with Cumbria... an amazing bit of work.’

I created the illustrations for this lovely coffee-table book.
The briefs were generally quite challenging. Many spreads had to accommodate a LOT of visual ideas, information and text, so in several cases I designed the spread in tandem with creating the illustration - to ensure the illustrative content had maximum impact. Other spreads involved quite a bit of historic and/or environmental research.

The book's available here.
