Leids Blauw
creative city map — 2007
Map of Leiden's city center, composed entirely of photographed street signs. The signs have been placed at the location where they were photographed. It is striking how diverse the design and typography of the street signs are.
The map is historical because in 2017 the Municipality of Leiden replaced the street signs in the city center with new ones.
