A map of Villanovas campus in Pennsylvania. This is a good map in my opinion for a couple reasons. The colors and detail to trees and buildings make the school more appealing then a standard map. Another big factor to me is the angle in which it is presented. It seems like a better layout from here then oppose to a straight birds eye view directly above the campus.

An interesting use of text type. Quite frankly, it's a pretty horrific map if you are using it logistically, nonetheless it is creative and unique.

This is an extremely interesting graphic that get's it's message across efficiently. I believe that if this were portrayed on a different map projection, for example a flat map of the world, the message wouldn't be conveyed as easily.
