Final Map



For my final iI decided to make a map showing both Volkswagen Dealer Locations in the Eastern US, along with the locations of major volkswagen car shows year round.

While looking at maps for the project, and ideas, I realized how many maps are used in advertisement - maps so simple that we sometimes forget they are still maps.

in creating this map, I wanted to resemble the simple style of volkswagen advertisement and mimick their still of ads. The map was kept simple with not much text or objects to dristract, but definetely gets the point across of dealer locations and show locations.

Some VW ads for reference:
