Maps

Our next project involves the concept of maps.  So what is the goal?  To create a map using design techniques and Adobe Illustrator.  My goal is to create a map that is based off of my trip to Parkland College each day.  The roads I take and the area that I pass by.  Not too crazy, but still a little more difficult to accomplish.  I have been research colorful maps that present cool imagery without emphasizing on street names.  Here is a great example of such.  The Tampa Bay area, looks small, but the map does create this excitement that sends a thought of vacation.  The addition of the cruise boats to the pirate ship and the neat illustration of the downtown and of course the waterways.  To me this is what I would like to recreate for my own map.
