معماری Lay of the Land: 13 Topographic Works of Art & Design

Capturing every dip, curve and peak of the surface shape of the land, topography can be highly symbolic of a love for the earth in general, for a specific city or simply for the beauty of the lines themselves. These 13 works of art and design, from hand-drawn topography on entire gallery walls to decorative relief maps of San Francisco, celebrate this field of science in a highly engaging, visual way.


Alphabet Topography by Synoptic Office

Yale graduates Caspar Lam and YuJune Park of Synoptic Office created this incredible topographic map of the alphabet, which gives the most-used letters like ‘A’ and ‘T’ the most vertical prominence. Letters that are used less often, like ‘X’, are nearly flat. YuJune told This is Colossal, “I modelled the letters individually in Rhino and exported sections of each letter to AutoCad and based this alphabet on word frequency as defined by the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, which interestingly enough, is almost identical to word frequency as defined by old linotype machines.”

Topographic Installations by Heike Weber

An entire room suddenly becomes a strange, abstracted landscape with the topographic renderings of artist Heike Weber. This is no regular-sized drawing that was blown up and adhered to the surfaces; Weber hand-drew the lines onto acrylic floor and wall surfaces. He has spent untold hours covering thousands of square feet over his career.

Looking like it was cut from a topographic map, this necklace by Melissa Borrell conforms to the shape of the wearer’s body, with flexible lines that ‘map the shapes that they follow’. It’s made of oxidized silver, white gold vermeil or 18K yellow gold vermeil.

Topographical Key Series by Daniel Bejar

Entitled ‘The Visual Topography of a Generation Gap’, this piece by artist Daniel Bejar creates an odd sort of landscape of keys. Says Bejar, “A copy was made from my original apartment key, then a copy was made from that copy. This process was repeated until the original keys information was destroyed, resulting in the topography of a generation.”

Crime Rates as Topographic Maps

Who knew that San Francisco had a mountain called ‘Prostitution Peak’? Such hidden ‘landscape features’ are revealed when the city’s crime statistics are analyzed as a 3D topographic map. Data visualization engineer Doug McCune shows how the city’s notorious hills can shift according to the type of crime, from larceny and vandalism to robbery and assault. (Read more)

Topography Wine by Rob Schellenberg

The topographic illustrations on this concept for wine labels by designer Rob Schellenberg were not simply chosen for their beauty, or due to an appreciation of topography on the part of the artist. They actually represent the regions of Italy where specific types of wine are grown and bottled.

Topography Cards by Crafterall

Spread the topography love with a set of four hand-cut cards by Crafterall. The Etsy seller cuts layers of craft paper in soft shades of teal, layering them into landscapes. Additional colors are available in the Crafterall shop.

The Topography Plate by Kyouei Design is actually shaped like a mountain range, making it a bit more literal than most topographic designs. Says designer Kouichi Okamoto, “The bottom of a lake appears when you eat the soup. When you use it as a salad dish, it becomes a forest. You can create a landscape on your very own table.”

Tile Relief Map of San Francisco

The terrain of San Francisco is turned into an art piece in the form of a white gypsum relief tile in a black wood frame. Made in San Francisco, the tile is a subtle and visually interesting homage to the city.

The rapidly changing topography of the Arctic Circle is frozen in time on this series of t-shirts, maps and other products by Sixpack France.
