Irregular lanes
Rather than a planned grid, the town's lanes follow the paths between compounds, forming an organic pattern that shows how the settlement grew over time.

The map
Aribinda is a town in the Sahel region of northern Burkina Faso, in a landscape of open savanna and dry plains that turns green only briefly during the rainy season. From above, the settlement is low and spread out. Unpaved lanes wind between family compounds, and the edges of the town fade gradually into fields and bare ground.
The road network around Aribinda is sparse. A few routes and tracks lead out toward neighbouring settlements, crossing shallow watercourses that carry rain for part of the year and stand dry the rest of the time. The area has long been home to herding and farming communities whose livelihoods follow the rhythm of the seasons.
An Aribinda map poster has an unusual quality: less a dense street plan than a drawing of a settlement within its landscape. Irregular lanes, generous open space and the thin lines of outlying tracks create a sparse, graphic composition that feels closer to an artist's sketch than to the regular grid of a city.
Rather than a planned grid, the town's lanes follow the paths between compounds, forming an organic pattern that shows how the settlement grew over time.
Thin roads and tracks leave the town in several directions, crossing open country toward other communities and giving the poster a strong sense of distance.
Shallow channels that carry water mainly in the rainy season cross the surrounding land, appearing on the map as faint lines through the dry plain.

Why Aribinda
For people from Aribinda and the wider Soum province, many of whom now live elsewhere in Burkina Faso or abroad, a map of home carries real weight. It is a calm, respectful way to keep the town present in daily life.
