The Changing Coast of Boston, MA
For this project I was tasked with creating a 3 map series that show how an area has changed over time. I wanted to demonstrate the changes to the coastline of Boston, MA. The maps themselves were made in Illustrator using several historical maps for reference. They were then brought into a layout with copy that discusses the changes and labels important landmarks (pictured first and second below). Following this layout I created a diagram showing the breakdown of how much of the man-made land in Boston was created. I then created a final combined layout using the grid system used and popularized by Massimo Vignelli.
Both projects have been displayed in galleries and exhibitions at SUNY Brockport.
