Durham City Map Poster

About this print

Durham map poster

Durham is a city that has reinvented itself without losing track of where it came from. The old brick tobacco warehouses downtown now hold offices, restaurants and apartments, and Duke University's Gothic-style campus sits a short distance to the west. In between and beyond are tree-lined neighborhoods, busy corners and long streets that people come to know by heart after a few years of living there. This print is a way to keep that whole street grid close at hand, whether Durham is home now or a place left behind.

The Watercolor edition gives the city map a soft, painterly look, with gentle washes of color in place of hard lines and flat fills. It reads as artwork first, which suits a living room, a hallway or a home office where a plain map might feel too technical. Up close it rewards a slow look as familiar routes come into focus, and from across the room it holds together as a calm, colorful piece.

A Durham map makes a thoughtful gift for a new graduate, a couple who met in the Bull City, or someone who has just moved away and misses the place. It also works well for anyone who has spent years in the Research Triangle and wants something on the wall that says where they have been. Like every RadMaps poster, it is meant as decorative art rather than a guide for getting around. The available sizes and options are listed on this page.
