The English Group has always kept a scrapbook of resources that we find inspiring. We now include this within our website in the form of a blog and, from now on, will add to it on an ongoing
basis. The directory showcases graphic design, art, books, magazines, film and music, photography, portraits, fashion, architecture, interiors, hotels and travel, products & toys - alongside The English
Group's own categories, ‘Travelling’ and 'Our Work' (‘Our Print’ and ‘Our Websites’), which illustrate the team's own travels and a full chronological listing of the agency's creative work.

Mississippi River Map

Stunningly complex looking map by Harold Fisk in 1944. It shows the “Geological Investigation of the Alluvial Valley of the Lower Mississippi River”.

 

I think it is more impressive because it is based on something real and not random or imaginary. Just another way that we view our world.
