Each map begins with elevation data and is drawn by a pen plotter in our Vermont studio. The result merges mechanical precision with the organic texture and imperfections of real ink on paper.
Acadia National Park occupies most of Mount Desert Island off the coast of Maine, a landscape where the Appalachian Mountains meet the Atlantic Ocean. Cadillac Mountain, at 1,530 feet, is the highest point on the eastern seaboard north of Rio de Janeiro, and from October through March its summit is the first place in the United States to see the sunrise.
This map captures the distinctive terrain of an island shaped by glaciation, where rounded granite peaks rise abruptly from the sea. The contour lines trace the deep U-shaped valleys carved by ice, the narrow ridgelines that connect summit to summit, and the fjord-like intrusion of Somes Sound, the only fjord on the U.S. Atlantic coast. The result is a portrait of compression — an extraordinary amount of topographic drama packed into a small island at the edge of a continent.
