"Most of the
maps in Homes For Sale looked pretty much just like this. This
one in a spin-off magazine — Apartment Homes For Rent —
needed to be created from scratch when the publication launched. Believe
me, it was a terrific challenge trying to draw or adjust a map every month,
fitting in the access streets to all the builder projects in the area
without distorting the scale beyond all recognition. Since none of the
other designers admitted to being able to read a map, this responsibility
fell on me ... every map in every issue. Frankly, I suspect they were
lying.
"On the positive side, the magazine did win industry awards
for our maps, which in a perfect world would be sitting on my own mantle."
