The map

About this Aioi map poster

Aioi lies in the west of Hyōgo Prefecture, where a long, narrow inlet cuts into the coast of the Harima Sea. On a map the bay is the defining shape, reaching deep into the land, with the town's streets gathered on the flat ground at its head and along its shores, and wooded hills rising steeply all around.

The city grew with shipbuilding, and the large yards on the waterfront remain some of the most distinctive forms on the map, their slipways and docks meeting the water at sharp angles. Aioi is also known for its Peron boat race festival, held on the bay each year.

An Aioi map poster captures a very Japanese kind of townscape: dense lanes squeezed onto narrow flat land, a railway and Shinkansen line threading between the hills, and a coastline shaped equally by nature and industry. It makes a composed, graphic print.

01

Aioi Bay

The long, slender bay pushes far inland, giving the map a dramatic central form of water surrounded by town and hills.

02

Shipyard waterfront

Large docks and slipways line the bay with hard, straight edges, a clear record of the industry that built the city.

03

Hill-bound streets

Steep forested slopes surround the town, so streets pack tightly onto the lowland and stop abruptly where the hills begin.

Why Aioi

A map that means something

Aioi is the kind of place people remember by its shape: the bay, the hills, the yards. A map keeps that picture whole, whether for someone who worked in the shipyards or a traveller who stopped on the Shinkansen.

Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates, and choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Blueprint suits the industrial waterfront particularly well.
