Fantastic Interpretations of the London Underground Map
January 12, 2013 1 Comment
To celebrate the 150th Birthday of the London Underground, Design Boom has put together a fantastic collection of different interpretations of the famous map, which was originally designed by Harry Beck in 1933 (on which the present day map is mainly based).
The collection includes a geographically accurate map by Mark Noad, and a tube map of the Milky Way by Samuel Arbesman.

Great collection; I’d like to note that although Mark’s map shows the correct geography of the stations, it does not render the true geography of the tunnels. My attention was recently drawn to the following website by ESRI, which (they claim) shows the accurate plots of both the stations and the lines – enjoy!
