M A P .O F. A. P L A C E drawn maps of cities and villages. These maps are compilations of (very subjective) drawings made by locals. They indicate points of orientation, both public and personal, preferred routes and the way people experience their city. Having a look at a map makes you navigate through the lines and indications. So far seven places have been mapped; Warsaw, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Hippolytushoef, Baarle-Nassau/Hertog and Doetinchem.

Maps are created by choosing a place, selecting a central point and walking a 15 kilometer circle around this point. On the way people are asked to draw a map from our current location to the central point. The collected drawings are compiled into an A1 sized map.

In January 2009 this graduation project was initiated in Warsaw, Poland during a studytrip with the Rietveld Academie.
