Featured Graphic - Yellowstone National Park
A 3D terrain model of this world famous national park, Yellowstone, highlighting points of interest and land formations. Designed for display as an overview of this region.
The three dimensional appearance has been created with a technique involving satellite imagery, whereby the image has been 'draped' over a digital elevation model. The mountain formations of this region lend themselves well to a presentation of this type.
Featured Illustration - Cafe Visualisation
This illustration was created to help an organisation who were looking to convert a building, which had previously been used as a church hall, in to a small cafe.
This visualisation was used to help the people planning the work decide upon the layout of the cafe. It was also used to raise awareness of the scheme to redevelop this building amongst members of the local community and the public in general.
National Museum of African American History & Culture - floor plans
Merritt Cartographic has produced a series of graphics for the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture. This is a new museum, opened in 2016, on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.. These plans were produced for a guidebook of the museum and help readers to navigate across eight floors of public galleries.
These graphics have been created with reference to accurate architectural plans and are drawn to scale. It was decided that a few key 'landmark' objects and displays should be visualised with small yet detailed illustrations. This provides guidebook readers and visitors to the museum with reference points as they travel around the building. Pictorial icons have also been included to identify public facilities and access points.
Merritt Cartographic produces detailed graphics and illustrations for a full range of applications and purposes.
