About the Project

I joined this project as a replacement illustrator at a quite advanced stage of development. I was approached by author Erik Hansson for creating the illustrated maps for the book, which had to combine the clarity and utility of scientific arwork with the liveliness of a more illustrative approach.

All illustrations, and the research required by the scientific accuracy, were created under a period of four months between January and May 2018.
