To each their own, I suppose. Our goal was create designs that were bold and bordering on the abstract, rather than to create traditional maps. I'd say maps are one of the more ubiquitous pieces of art, but rarely are cause for any attention. We wanted to create art anchored in people's identities -- not just another standard map of Paris.
I think what I'm getting at is that you probably aren't in our target audience for these current designs. That's totally okay... Perhaps one of our future designs will suit your fancy.
