Map — Uppsala Sweden

An accurate map of Uppsala Sweden that keeps hierarchy under control when scaling from A3 to A0. Typography spacing is tuned for quick reading on posters, brochures and reports. Waterfronts and parks receive extra separation for better contrast on light palettes. Bridges, tunnels and ferry lines are isolated so routes remain legible after recolor. Named layers let you restyle colors, line weights and label classes without cleanup passes. District and neighborhood labels are arranged to avoid collisions around dense cores.

Use it for visitor guides, city infographics, investment decks and municipal communications. Saves prepress time by reducing manual fixes and keeping the visual system consistent. The map integrates neatly with common DTP and GIS workflows. Keeps labels readable while allowing deep customization of routes and highlights. Legibility holds up on handheld leaflets and large lobby posters alike.
